Abstract

Stump appendicitis is one of the rare delayed complications of appendectomy first described in 2 patients by Rose in 1945. In this study, we report a case of recurrent appendicitis after previous appendectomy. 21 year old female represented to emergency clinic with a 3 day history of abdominal pain. Her physical examination revealed right lower quadrant pain, defance and rebound at right lower quadrant. Her abdominal ultrasonography revealed an inflamed tubular, non compressible, non peristalting, blind ended, 1.5 cm in length structure at right lower quadrant. We performed stump appendicectomy and the pathology revealed acute inflammatory changes. Stump appendicitis is a real entity and should be taken into considerations in the differential diagnosis of right lower quadrant abdominal pain, and even in patients with previous appendectomy or abdominal surgery with incidental appendectomy. High degree of suspicion can help to make a correct diagnosis and a safe treatment

Özet

Güdük apandisiti apendektominin çok nadir görülen gecikmiş bir komplikasyonudur ve ilk defa Rose tarafından 1945 yılında 2 vaka ile tanımlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada daha önce apendektomi olan bir hastada rekürren apandisit olgusundan bahsediyoruz. 21 yaşında bayan hasta 3 gündür olan karın ağrısı şikayeti ile acil servise başvurdu. Fizik muayenesinde sağ alt kadranda ağrı, defans ve rebound mevcuttu. Abdominal ultrasonografide inflame tübüler, komprese olmayan, peristaltizmi olmayan, kör sonlanan 1.5 cm uzunluğunda bir yapı görüldü. Hastaya güdük apendektomi yapıldı. Patoloji sonucu inflamatuar değişiklikler geldi. Güdük apandisit çok nadir görülen ve sağ alt kadran ağrılarında hatta sağ üst kadran ağrılarında ayırıcı tanıda yer alması gereken bir patolojidir. Güvenli bir tanı ve tedavi için daha önce apendektomi hikayesi olanlar da dahil mutlaka ayırıcı da güdük apandisit yer almalıdır
