Abstract

Background: Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical problem in pregnancy after obstetric reasons. Pregnant patients operated with diagnosis of acute appendicitis were reviewed retrospectively in this study. Patients and Methods : 24 pregnant patients operated with diagnosis of acute appendicitis in Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital between January and December 2003 were included in this study. Results: 19 out of 24 patients (%79,2) were pathologically diagnosed as acute appendicitis. Out of other 5 patients , 2 patients had ovarian cyst rupture, I had ovarian cyst torsion , and 2 had negative laparatomies. Distribution of patients was 2, 16 , and 6 patients respectively, for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimester. 2 patients had preterm labour and I fetus resulted with exitus. Preoperative ultrasonography showed similarity to peroperative findings in 12 of 24 patients. Discussion: Diagnosis of acute appendicitis in pregnancy is quite difficult, and physical examination and patient history are still most important diagnostic tools. Perforation risk in pregnant patients higher than normal population.

Özet

Giriş: Gebelikte, obstetrik olaylar dışında en sık cerrahi girişim nedeni akut apandisittir. Bu çalışmada akut apandisit ön tanısıyla ameliyat edilen gebe hastalar retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Ankara Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesinde Ocak 2001 ile Aralık 2003 tarihleri arasında akut apandisit ön tanısıyla öpere edilen 24 gebe hasta çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Sonuçlar: Yırmidört hastanın 19'unda patoloji sonucu akut apandisit tanısı ile uyumlu idi (%79,2j. Diğer 5 hastanın 2'sinde over kist rupturü, I' inde paratubal torsiyone over kisti, diğer 2'sinde ise negatif laparatomi mevcuttu. 1., 2., ve 3. trimesterdeki hasta sayısı sırasıyla 2, 16 ve 6 idi. 2 hastada preterm eylem gelişti ve vakaların'birinde fetus kaybedildi. 12 hastada preoperatif dönemde yapılan ultrasonografi peroperatif bulgularla benzerdi. Tartışma: Gebelikte akut apandisit tanısı oldukça güç olup fizik muayene ve anamnez, halen en önemli tanı yöntemleridir ve normal populasyona göre gebelerde perforasyon riski artmaktadır.
