Abstract

Various kinds of foreign bodies causing appendicitis have been reported. However, a needle contained in the appendix is very rare, especially in adults. We report an unusual case of a twenty year old man who had ingested a needle ten days prior and presented with signs and symptoms of acute abdominal pain. An abdominal computed tomography scan revealed acute appendicitis. The patient was successfully treated with laparoscopic surgical intervention. In cases of a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract that cannot be removed endoscopically, the emergence of non-specific symptoms may be early symptoms of acute problems in the abdomen.

Özet

Çeşitli yabancı cisimlerin akut apandisite neden olduğu bildirilmiştir. Ancak apandikste iğne bulunması özellikle yetişkinlerde çok nadir görülmektedir. Bu yazıda, nadir bir olgu olan, 10 gün önce iğne yutan ve akut karın semptom ve bulguları ile başvuran 20 yaşındaki erkek hasta sunuldu. Karın BT görüntülerinde akut apandisit raporlanan hasta laparoskopik cerrahi girişim ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edildi. Endoskopik olarak çıkarılamayan ve konservatif tedavi ile takip edilen gastrointestinal sistemde yabancı cisim olan olgularda, nonspesifik semptomların ortaya çıkması akut karının erken dönem bulguları olabilir.
