Abstract

Acute appendicitis is the most common non-traumatic emergency surgical pathology, and duplication of the appendix is a rare congenital anomaly usually detected incidentally during laparotomy. Since Picoli first described appendix duplex in a female patient who presented with associated anomalies, few other cases have been reported. In this study, we aimed to present a case of appendix duplication detected in a 56-year-old female renal transplant patient undergoing surgery for acute appendicitis. Surgical management of double appendix is of practical importance to avoid serious medical and legal consequences

Özet

Akut apandisit travmatik olmayan acil cerrahi gerektiren en sık patoloji olup apendikse ait duplikasyon nadir bir konjenital anomalidir ve genellikle laparotomi esnasında tesadüfen saptanır. Picoli’nin eşlik eden anomalileri olan bir kadın hastada ilk apendiks duplikasyonu olgusunu bildirdikten sonra sınırlı sayıda olgu bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada akut apandisit nedeniyle ameliyat ettiğimiz 56 yaşında böbrek transplantılı bir kadın hastada tespit edilen apendiks duplikasyonu olgusunu sunmak amaçlanmıştır. Apendiks duplikasyonunun cerrahi yönetimi ciddi medikal ve yasal sonuçlardan kaçınmak adına pratik öneme sahiptir.
