Abstract

Objective: Appendiceal cystadenoma (AC) is a rare pathology diagnosed in 0.6% of all appendectomy operations. The purpose of the report was to present a rare case of ileal volvulus due to appendiceal cystadenoma, which was successfully treated with surgery. Case: A woman aged 76 years was admitted to our emergency service with severe right lower quadrant pain. Abdominal tomography and X-ray showed features of generalized dilatation of bowel segments with periluminal fluid collections. Intraoperatively, we found bowel volvulus and a 2 cm mass at the appendiceal borders and an appendectomy was performed. The volvulated ileal segment was resected and restored with end-to-end anastomosis. Histopathologic examination of the mass revealed mucinous cystadenoma. Our patient was discharged from hospital at postoperative one week with complete clinical recovery.Conclusion: Obstruction of the appendiceal lumen by a mucinous neoplasia can cause appendicitis followed by secondary volvulus in different parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Our case was further complicated by ileal volvulus, which led to an extremely rare presentation

Özet

Amaç: Appendikste oluşan kistadenoma appendektomi ameliyatlarının %0.6'sında tespit edilen nadir bir patolojik durumdur. Bu yayının amacı, apendiks kistadenomuna bağlı gelişen ve cerrahi ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilen, nadir görülen ileal volvulus olgusunu sunmaktır. Olgu: Yetmiş altı yaşındaki kadın hasta acil servisimize şiddetli sağ kadran ağrısı ile kabul edildi. Yapılan abdominal bilgisayarlı tomografide (Abdominal BT) ve abdominal direkt grafide bağırsak segmentlerinde yaygın dilatasyon ve periluminal sıvı koleksiyonları izlendi. Yapılan cerrahi operasyonda ince bağırsak bölgesinde volvulus ve appendiks bölgesinde 2 cm'lik kitle lezyonu nedeni ile apendektomi uygulandı. Volvüle olarak izlenen ileal segment parsiyel olarak uç-uca anastamoz yapılarak rezeke edildi. Alınan kitle histopatolojik olarak müsinöz kistadenoma ile uyumlu olarak geldi. Hastamız genel durumu düzeldikten sonra bir haftalık yatış periodu sonrası taburcu edildi. Sonuç: Appendiks lümeninde müsinöz neoplazi ile oluşan obstrüksüyon gastrointestinal sistemin değişik yerlerinden volvulus ile komplike olabilir. Vakamız ileal volvulus ile komplike olan ileri derecede nadir vaka presentasyonu özelliğini göstermektedir
