Abstract:
Introduction: Despite many advances in diagnosis, diagnosing appendicitis remains difficult. Various diagnostic scoring systems have been developed in an attempt to improve the diagnostic accuracy of acute appendicitis. The study aimed to determine the accuracy of the Modified Alvarado and Eskelinen score in diagnosing acute appendicitis and to correlate the histopathological findings with the severity of acute appendicitis. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted in TUTH including 84 patients with a clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis managed surgically for 10 months. Mo

In the field of General Surgery AA is the frequent clinical condition for which patients who need emergency surgery present with abdominal pain.1 Diagnosis of this pathology is made with the help of history, patient symptoms, and clinical exam and lab investigations. Ultrasonography (USG) and computed tomography (CT) images for acute appendicitis should be considered.2 Methodology: The purpose of the study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of Modified Alvarado Score (MAS) and Ohmann Scores (OS) in diagnosing the pathology of Acute Appendicitis, while retaining histopathology as the basis f

Abstract:
Background: The diagnosis of acute appendicitis must be performed quickly and accurately to reduce the risk of negative appendectomy without increasing the risk of perforation. Objective: To analyze whether Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NL-R) in the modified Alvarado score is more accurate in diagnosing acute appendicitis in comparison with total leukocyte and neutrophil. Method: This was a cross-sectional study and the data were collected from Telogorejo Hospital Semarang (Indonesia) from November 2018 until October 2019. The best cut-off point of NL-R for predicting acute appendicitis was pro

ABSTRACT Background: Appendicitis is one of the most common abdominal emergency. Some predictive scoring systems are recommended to decrease the rate of negative appendectomy. Aim: To evaluate sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of modified Alvarado score in children who underwent appendectomy. Methods: Four hundred children with initial diagnosis of appendicitis were randomly selected from patients who underwent appendectomy.
