Abstract

Objective: In our study we aimed to evaluate the treatment and diagnosis of the cases with acute diverticulitis of the left colon (descendant colon, sigmoid and rectum) who had been treated in our clinic. Methods: The patients with AD in the left colon, sigmoid ve rectum who were treated in general surgery clinic of our hospital September 2007 and November 2014 were evaluated. The data was obtained retrospectively. from patient files and medulla (Probel Corporation), and patients' electronical recording system Demographics, additional-morbidity, clinical complaints, imaging and laboratuary findings were recorded. The distribution of diverticulitis in the left colon, the data about treatment and surgical treatment, the type of performed operation, duration of hospitalization and the data about mortality and morbidity were recorded. The patients were classified and grouped according to Hinchey classification. Results: Totally 35 patients were included in our study and the mean age of the patients was 56(29-78).According to Hinchey classification, 24 cases (68.4%) were assessed as Hinchey 1-2 and 11 cases (31,4%) were assesed as Hinchey 3-4. It was found that abdominal tomography was performed in 35 cases (100%), abdominal ultrasonography was performed in 33 cases (94.3%). Colonoscopy was performed in 22 cases (62.9%). Most frequently sigmoid colon diverticulitis was determined in 31 cases (88.6%). Medical treatment was administered in 48.6 % of all the patients. Elective surgical intervention was performed in 11.4% of the patients. The most frequenly performed surgical operation was the Hartman procedure (48.6%). Complications were observed in seven cases and the mortality was detected in 3 cases (8.7%). Conclusion: Acute diverticulitis could be treated by medical treatment in appropriate cases. Urgent surgical intervention should be performed for the patients who are in advanced stages (Hinchey 3,4) of the disease in the clinical and imaging presentations. Abdominal imaging techniques have an important role for the diagnosis, treatment and the observation of the entire course of diverticulitis.

Özet

Amaç: Akut karın oluşturan akut divertikülitin (AD) cerrahi kliniklerinde tanı ve tedavisi tartışmalıdır. Çalışmamızda, genel cerrahi kliniğimizde tedavi edilen sol kolon (inen kolon, siğmoid ve rektum) yerleşimli akut divertikülit olgularının tanı ve tedavi yaklaşımlarının incelenmesi amaçlandı.Yöntemler: Eylül 2007-Kasım 2014 tarihleri arasında sol kolon, sigmoid ve rektum yerleşimli AD nedeniyle hastenemiz genel cerrahi kliniğinde tedavi edilen hastalar değerlendirildi. Veriler hasta dosyaları ve Medülla (Probel A.Ş.) elektronik hasta kayıt sisteminden retrospektif olarak toplandı. Hastaların demografik, ek-morbidite, klinik yakınmaları, görüntüleme ve laboratuvar bulguları kaydedildi. Divertikülitlerin sol kolondaki dağılımı, tıbbi tedavi ve cerrahi tedavi verileri, yapılan ameliyatın tipi, hastanede yatış süresi ve morbidite-mortalite verileri incelendi. Hastalar Hinchey sınflamasına göre sınıflandırıldı ve gruplandırıldı. Bulgular: Toplam 35 hasta dâhil edilen çalışmamızdaki ortalama yaş 56 yıl idi. Hinchey sınflandırılmasına göre 24 (%68,4) olgu Hinchey 1-2 ve 11 (%31,4) olgu Hinchey 3-4 olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Klinik olarak en sık yakınmanın otuziki (%91,4) olguda karın ağrısı olduğu saptandı. Otuz beş (%100) olguda karın tomografisi, otuz üç (%94,3) olguda karın ultrasonografisi yapıldığı bulundu. Kolonoskopi 22 (%62,9) olguda yapılmıştır. En sık olarak 31 (%88,6) olguda sigmoid kolon divertiküliti saptanmıştır. Tüm olguların %48,6'sına medikal tedavi uygulanmıştır. Elektif cerrahi girişim %11,4 olguda yapılmıştır. En sık uygulanan cerrahi işlem %48,6 oranında Hartmann prosedürü idi. Yedi olguda (%20) komplikasyon ve üç (%8,7) olguda mortalite izlendi. Sonuç: Akut divertikülit uygun olgularda (Hinchey 1,2) medikal tedavi ile tedavi edilebilir. Klinik ve görüntüleme bulgularında hastalığın ileri evresinde (Hinchey 3,4) olanlar için acil cerrahi girişim uygulanmalıdır. Tanı, tedavi ve tüm sürecinin izlenmesinde karın görüntüleme yöntemleri önemli bir rolü vardır
