Abstract:

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes and morbidities of laparoscopic appendicectomy (LA) and open appendicectomy (OA) in patients with acute appendicitis. Design: Interventional study. Setting: The study was conducted at Madina Teaching Hospital, University Medical & Dental College, Faisalabad. Period: From June 2007 to August 2009. Materials and Methods: The study group consisted of two hundred patients suffering from acute appendicitis. One hundred patients underwent LA and one hundred patients underwent OA. Comparison was based on operating time, complications, requirements for postoperative analgesia, time until resumption to regular diet, hospital stay, and return to full activity in days. Comparisons were made between continuous variables using Student’s t test of the means and were made between proportions using Fischer’s exact or chi-square testing where appropriate. Statistical significance was taken to be a p value of .05 or less. Results: Of the hundred patients, five patients (5%) had the procedure converted to open surgery. The rate of infection was significantly lower in patients undergoing LA. The median length of stay was significantly shorter after LA (2 days after LA, 5 days after OA, P < 0.05) than after OA. The operating time was shorter {OA: 25 min (median), LA: 30 min (median), P > .05} in patients undergoing open appendicectomy compared to laparoscopic appendicectomy. Conclusion: LA is associated with increased clinical comfort in terms of fewer wound infections, faster recovery, earlier return to work and improved cosmesis.

Abstract:

Open appendectomy has already commonly been performed to treat acute appendicitis, but the relatively more painful and longer incision scar becomes a cosmetical problem. Two port laparoscopic appendectomy can be performed safely, less painful and leaving only two small incision scars. The aim of the study was to evaluate the benefit of two-port laparoscopic appendectomy and that of with open appendectomy in the case of early acute appendicitis. An observational study was conducted from 2012 to 2014; to compare the operating time, post operative pain and wound infection in early acute appendicitis, performed with two-port laparoscopic appendectomy and with open appendectomy. The statistical analysis in this study uses t-test. There were 114 patients (73 men and 41 women) divided into two groups based on the choice made by the patients themselves. The number of samples performed with two-port laparoscopic appendectomy was 64 and that with open appendectomy was 46. Four patients were excluded from this study. In analysis using t-test, we found that the two-port laparoscopic appendectomy was more beneficial than open appendectomy. There was a significant difference between the two groups, the length of operation time was 37.22 minute in two-port laparoscopic appendectomy and 43.83 minute in open appendectomy (p=0.00), VAS pain score was 1.58 in two-port laparoscopic appendectomy and 2.30 in open appendectomy (p=0.00) and no post operative wound infection in both two groups. The conclusion is two-port laparoscopic appendectomy technique is faster and less painful and the same risk of wound infection than open appendectomy in early acute appendicitis.

Abstract:

Aim: To determine the outcome of laparoscopic appendectomy in comparison to open appendectomy in patients admitted with acute appendicitis. Study design: Randomized controlled trial. Place and duration of study: Department of General Surgery, H.H SKBZ Hospital/ AK CMH Muzaffarabad from 23rd November 2019 to 22nd May 2020. Methodology: A total of 70 patients of age 15-60 years of either gender presenting with appendicitis were included. Patients with co-morbidities i.e. hypertension (BP≥140/90mmhg), diabetes (BSR>180mg/dl), liver (ALT>40IU, AST>40IU), anemia (Hb<10g/L) were excluded. In group A, open appendectomy was done. In group B, laparoscopic appendectomy was done. All surgeries were done under general anesthesia by a single surgical team with assistance of researcher. Duration of surgery was noted in minutes. After appendectomy, patients were detained in surgical ward and were observed there till discharge. Results: Mean operative time in Group A (open appendectomy) was 43.06±5.71 minutes while in Group B (laparoscopic appendectomy) was 50.71±3.67 minutes (p0.0001). Mean hospital stay in Group A (open appendectomy) was 4.0±0.73 days while in Group B (laparoscopic appendectomy) was 2.09±0.70 days (p0.0001). Wound infection in Group A (open appendectomy) was 8.57% while in Group B (laparoscopic appendectomy) was 2.86% (p0.303). Conclusion: This study concluded that outcome of laparoscopic appendectomy is better as compared to open appendectomy in patients presenting with appendicitis.

Abstract:

IntroductionAcute appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency of the abdomen and appendectomy is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures. Laparoscopic appendectomy is one of the commonest surgical procedure in most of the tertiary center and is being an effective alternative to open appendectomy. Despite continuing evolution in laparoscopic appendectomy, this procedure continue to carry the risk of conversion to openappendectomy. The objective was to analyze the factor, identify the predictors for difficult laparoscopic appendectomy. MethodsThe study was conducted in College of Medical Sciences, Bharatpur. All patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy from 1st January 2020 to 30th December 2020 were included in the study after taking written informed consent. A detailed performa was developed to record informationregarding patient history, physical examination, laboratory parameters, ultrasonography findings, CT findings and intra-operative details. Laparoscopic appendectomy done in more than 120 minutes, converted into open due to difficulty in surgery and not due to complications, severe adhesions were considered to be a case of difficult appendectomy. ResultsIn our study total 94 patients underwent laparoscopic appendectomy among which 16 (17.02%) cases had difficult appendectomy. The incidence of difficult appendectomy was higher among older age group, male sex, long duration of symptoms, high white blood cell count, difficult anatomy, pre existing co-morbid condition, extreme findings on computed tomography and ultrasonography (USG). Operating time, anaesthetic time, and duration of hospital stay werelonger after difficult appendectomy. ConclusionsIdentifying the potential factors for conversion preoperatively may assist the surgeons in making decisions concerning the management of patients with appendicitis and in the judicious use of laparoscopic appendectomy. From our study we found that independent predictors for difficult appendectomy are old age, male sex, prolonged duration of symptoms, high white blood cellcount, higher body mass index (BMI), extreme inflammation in computed tomography scan and ultrasonography. Proceeding directly with open appendectomy under these circumstances may reduce operative time, reduce hospital stay and morbidity.

Abstract:

Introduction. Laparoscopic appendectomy is one of the simplest laparoscopic procedures, which is gradually becoming the method of choice in treatment of acute appendicitis due to its advantages over open appendectomy. In South-Eastern Europe the use of laparoscopic appendectomy is still very limited although it is a very simple procedure, suitable for training laparoscopic techniques. Technique of Laparoscopic Appendectomy. This review article describes the position of the patient and surgical team during laparoscopic appendectomy, position of troacars and working instruments which result in expressive cosmetic effect, technique of laparoscopic appendectomy, different ways of securing the base of appendix. Complications of Laparoscopic Appendectomy. This review article describes management of complicated appendicitis, and intra- and post-operative complications. Conclusion. Laparoscopic appendectomy has many advantages over open appendectomy. The risk of wound infection is lower, postoperative pain is weaker and the hospital stay is shorter.

Abstract:

The worldwide trend of appendectomy is shifting from conventional open to the laparoscopic technique. The study’s objective was to compare laparoscopic and open appendectomy in terms of various operative and postoperative parameters to find the best operative technique. A prospective comparative study was conducted on 142 patients undergoing laparoscopic (n=43) or open appendectomy (n=99) from 1st February 2022 to 30th January 2023 under the Department of Surgery of Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital (KMCTH). In five patients, laparoscopic appendectomy was later converted to open and excluded from the study. The mean operating time for the open appendectomy group was 44.1±13.1 minutes while for the laparoscopic appendectomy group, it was 48.4±14.0 minutes (p=0.047). Visual analogue score taken on 1st, 7th and 30th post-operative day for open and laparoscopic appendectomy were 4.0±2.2 vs 3.6±1.9 (p=0.160); 1.4±1.3 vs 0.6±0.9 (p<0.001) and 0.2±0.5 vs 0.02±0.15 (p=0.107) respectively. The total days of postoperative hospital stay were 1.57±0.96 for open appendectomy and 1.58±1.07 for laparoscopic appendectomy (p=0.843). However, laparoscopic appendectomy group had an earlier return to normal activity (7.30±1.15 days) when compared to the open appendectomy group (8.05±2.42 days) (p=0.023). The laparoscopic appendectomy group also had fewer postoperative complications than the open appendectomy group (18.6% vs 24.2%) (p=0.411). Thus, laparoscopy is a safe and effective method of removal of appendix for acute appendicitis.

Abstract:

Background: Minilaparoscopy is considered one of the minimally invasive options available for acute appendicitis treatment, although not always employed in less complexity public health services. Aim: Report surgical outcomes of minilaparoscopy use in acute appendicitis treatment. Method : The study included 21 patients undergoing minilaparoscopic appendectomy with instrumental of 3 mm. The following variables were analyzed: sex, age, body mass index, stage of appendicitis, surgical time, hospital stay, surgical complications, conversion rate to conventional laparoscopy or laparotomy, pain after surgery and aesthetic result. Results: Twelve men and nine women underwent minilaparoscopic appendectomy. The average age was 27,8 years, the mean BMI was 24,8 kg/m2. The operative time ranged from 33 to 160 min and the average of hospital stay was three days. Among the 21 patients, 20 reported mild pain or no pain in the first postoperative day. The aesthetic result was considered "satisfactory" and "very satisfactory" by 95% of the patients. Conclusions: The minilaparoscopy is viable technique for treating acute appendicitis with a satisfactory recovery. It combines the benefits of minimally invasive procedures with results similar to conventional techniques.

Abstract:

Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency. Despite advancesin diagnostic techniques, an accurate pre-operative diagnosis may still pose a challenge tothe clinicians. Therefore, even today we are facing a high rate of negative appendectomy.The current study explores this aspect of a common and important disease. Objectives: Toknow the percentage of negative operative findings in acute appendicitis in our hospital thatdrains wide area of population from lower socioeconomic strata. Patients and methods: Thisprospective cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Surgery, Lady ReadingHospital, Peshawar within two years from 1-1-2009 to 31-12-2010. This study included 673cases undergoing appendectomy. All the patients operated for clinical diagnosis of acuteappendicitis over the study period were included. Their history, clinical features, and resultsof investigations were noted. Gross examination of intact appendix specimen, and on-tablecross sectional inspection of appendix was made; and were correlated with histopathologicalfindings (as gold standard). Results: The study included 673 patients. There were 478 males(70%), and highest number of patients was in second decade of life. On gross examination,545 (81%) appendices were swollen, 531 (79%) were reddened due to inflammation; 63 (9.4%)were gangrenous; and 50 (7.5%) had perforated; while in 128 patients (19%) the appendix wasnormal looking with shiny surface. Fibrino-purulent exudate in the peri-appendeceal regionwas noticed in 253 (37.6%) patients. The cut section of appendix showed wall abscess in 474(70.4%) cases, and mucosal ulceration in 325 (48.2%). Necrotic foci in mucosa were seen in188 (27.6%) cases, and in 61 cases (9%) the necrosis was extending through the wall up toserosa. Histopathology revealed marked acute inflammation in 416 (61.8%) cases, moderateinflammation in 92 (13.7%), and mild inflammation in 47 (6.9%); while in 118 cases the appendixhad no evidence of inflammation (giving negative appendectomy rate of 17.5%). Negativeappendectomy rate in females was 29.2% compared to 12.7% in males. Probable alternatediagnoses are also addressed. Conclusions: The negative appendectomy can be avoidedin many cases if ultrasound facilities were available during odd hours of patient presentation.Similarly, the rate of negative appendectomy can be further reduced in adults, especially femalesaround puberty and reproductive age, by the provision of laparoscopy during emergency hoursof the day.

Abstract:

Objective: To determine the benefits of incidental appendectomy during abdominal hysterectomy in terms of post-operativecomplications and cost of operation. Duration: (5 years) 2003 to 2008. Design: Retrospective study. Methodology: 171patients who did (n:73) or did not (n: 98) undergo elective incidental appendectomy at the time of uncomplicated total abdominal hysterectomy from 2003 to 2008 atthree different hospitals by a single surgeon. The data was obtained about age, operation time, hospital stay, postoperative complications like(fever, wound infection, abscess formation, wound collection, wound dehiscence). Post-operative follow up was done for 5 years. Data wasanalyzed with chi square test using SPSS 16. Results: Seventy three incidental appendectomies were performed in this study of 171 patients(43%). The procedure was most commonly performed with total abdominal hysterectomy. Bilateral salpingo oophorectomy was performed in27 (16%) while unilateral in 13 cases (7.6%). Histopathology was done in 114 cases of uterus (70%), all the ovarian samples (100%), and 14 ofappendixes (19%). Only 06 appendixes out of 14 were reported inflamed (42.8%). Sixteen patients (16.3%) out of remaining 98 patientsreported for appendectomy within 3 to 5 years following TAH. P value <0.05 was considered significant and results of both groups werecompared with mean and P value. Conclusions: The data from current study and review of literature affirms incidental removal of theappendix. The two groups are comparable to each other in all parameters and perforation. The decision to perform an elective coincidentalappendectomy at the time of an unrelated gynecologic surgical procedure should be based on individual clinical scenarios and patientcharacteristics and preferences.
