Abstract

Introduction: Epiploic appendagitis (EA) may develop as a result of torsion of appendix epiploicae. EA affect the colon and is confused with other acute abdominal pathology. We present misdiagnosed ischemic epiploic appendagitis that present at the vermiform appendix. Case: A 63 years-old patient presented with the complaint of abdominal pain. She had right lower quadrant pain, tenderness and rebound tenderness. Then, increased white blood cell(WBC) count (13300 cells/µL). We conform to the emergency abdominal surgery (Appendectomy). During the operation an ischemic and gangrenous appendix epilploica that present at the vermiform appendix was observed. Then , appendectomy was performed with attached infarcted appendix epiploica.Conclusion: Case with ischemic epiploic appendagitis that present at the vermiform appendix may be confused with other acute abdomen clinique.

Özet

Appendiks vermiformisin primer epiploik apandisiti; nadir bir olgu Giriş: Epiploik apandisit (EA), apendiks epiploikanın torsiyonu sonucu gelişebilir. EA kolonu etkiler ve diğer akut karın patolojileri ile karışabilir. Biz yanlış tanı konulan apendiks vermiformisin iskemik epiploik apandisit vakasını sunmak istedik. Vaka: 63 yaşında bayan hasta karın ağrısı şikayeti ile başvurdu. Hastada sağ alt kadran ağrısı, ve hassasiyet ve rebaund hassasiyet mevcuttu. Hastanın tam kan tahlilinde lökosit değeri 13300 /µL olarak bulundu. Hastaya uygulanan abdominal cerrahi ile apendektomi yapıldı. Ameliyat esnasında apendiks vermiformisin iskemik ve gangrenöz epiploik apandisiti gözlendi. Ardından infarkt eklenmiş epiploik apandisit için apandektomi yapıldı. Sonuç: Apendiks vermiformisin iskemik epiploik apandisiti vakaları, diğer akut karın tablolarının klinikleri ile karışabilmektedir. Cerrahlar kendi kendini sınırlayan bu hastalığın farkında olmalıdırlar
