Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry about.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Since there are no symptoms related to the surgery and/or abdomen there is no likelihood of any complications and the prognosis is great.
It looks that there was a single diverticulum that got treated successfully.
The likely things that can occur are:
Formation of another diverticulum.
Stricture formation at the anastomosis site.
If these would have occurred, there would have been symptoms as mentioned above.
So nothing to worry about.
As mentioned above, the prognosis is best.
I hope this answers your queries.
