Management of acute simple appendicitis is well described but controversy remains as to the optimal treatment of complicated appendicitis.

متن کاملDiagnostic Value of C-reactive Protein in Complicated Appendicitis
PURPOSE Early detection of appendicitis has increased due to development of computed tomography and ultrasonography, yet we are frequently meeting complicated appendicitis, including perforation, abscess and a gangrenous appendicitis due to delayed diagnosis. For that reason, we want to evaluate predictive factors for the complicated appendicitis. METHODS A total of 128 patients with appendic...
متن کاملValidity of predictive factors of acute complicated appendicitis
BACKGROUND Our previous retrospective study revealed the three preoperative predictors of complicated appendicitis (perforated or gangrenous appendicitis), which are body temperature ≥37.4 °C, C-reactive protein ≥4.7 mg/dl, and fluid collection surrounding the appendix on computed tomography. We reported here an additional prospective study to verify our ability to predict complicated appendici...
متن کاملPredictive Factors to Distinguish Between Patients With Noncomplicated Appendicitis and Those With Complicated Appendicitis
PURPOSE Recently, randomized controlled trials have reported that conservative therapy can be a treatment option in patients with noncomplicated appendicitis. However, preoperative diagnosis of noncomplicated appendicitis is difficult. In this study, we determined predictive factors to distinguish patients with noncomplicated appendicitis from those with complicated appendicitis. METHODS A to...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of procalcitonin for acute complicated appendicitis
A rapid and reliable test for detection of complicated appendicitis would be useful when deciding whether emergency surgery is required. We investigated the clinical usefulness of procalcitonin for identifying acute complicated appendicitis. We retrospectively analyzed 63 patients aged ≥15 years who underwent appendectomy without receiving antibiotics before admission and had preoperative data ...
