Abstract

Objective: Acute abdominal pain is a common cause of admission to the emergency department. Differential diagnosis of abdominal pain is not easy for the emergency physician. In this study, the results of physical examination, blood biochemical analysis and radiological imaging in patients presenting to the emergency department with abdominal pain were evaluated. These findings were compared with the literature. Material and Methods: This study was designed as a cross-sectional descriptive study. One hundred and sixty-six patients were included. Patient physical examination findings, amylase, D-dimer and leukocyte values and radiological and surgical findings were evaluated. Results: All patients had abdominal physical examination findings. Seventy- two (43.4%) patients had only abdominal sensitivity, 33 (28%) patients showed gall bladder pathology by ultrasound and no pathology was found in 36 patients (30.7%). A mass was determined in three (8.1%) of 37 (22.3%) patients, appendicitis in four (10.8%), gall bladder pathology in three (8.1%), ileus-volvulus in four (10.8%) and mesenteric ischemia in six (16.2%) patients who were examined by abdominal tomography. Conclusion: Despite advances in imaging and laboratory techniques, the great majority of cases with acute abdominal pain cannot be definitively diagnosed, as in this study, and are evaluated as non-specific abdominal pain. The fact that selected cases are transferred to the center where the investigation is performed may create a discrepancy with the literature. In this study, the frequency of gall duct-related diseases was higher than in the literature and cases of acute appendicitis were much less frequent. (JAEM 2012; 11: 212-5)

Özet

Amaç: Akut karın ağrısı acil servise sık başvuru nedenlerindendir. Karın ağrısının ayırıcı tanısı acil hekimi için kolay değildir. Bu çalışmada acile akut karın ağrısı ile başvuran hastaların muayene bulguları, biyokimyasal değerleri ve radyolojik bulguları değerlendirildi. Bu bulgular literatür ile karşılaştırıldı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma kesitsel tanımlayıcı bir çalışma olarak planlandı. Çalışmaya toplam 166 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların fizik muayene bulguları, amilaz, D-dimer, lökosit değerleri, radyolojik bulguları ve operasyon bulguları değerlendirilmeye alındı. Bulgular: Hastaların tamamında karında fizik muayane bulgusu vardı. Sadece hassasiyet bulgusu olan hasta sayısı 72 (%43.4) idi. Ultrasonografi yapılan hastalardan 33’ünde (%28.0) safra kesesi patolojisi tespit edilirken, 36 (%30.7) hastada herhangi bir patolojiye rastlanmadı. Karın tomografisi çekilen 37 (%22.3) hastanın 3’ünde (%8.1) kitle, 4’ünde (%10.8) apandisit, 3’ünde (%8.1) safra kesesi patalojisi, 4’ünde (%10.8) ileus-volvulus ve 6’sında (%16.2) mezenter iskemi tespit edildi. Sonuç: Görüntüleme ve labarotuvar yöntemlerindeki gelişmelere rağmen akut karın ağrısı olgularının büyük bir kısmı bu çalışmada da olduğu gibi non spesifik karın ağrısı olarak değerlendirilmekte, kesin tanı konulamamaktadır. Çalışma yapılan merkeze seçilmiş vakaların sevk ediliyor olması literatürle uyumsuzluk yaratabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada safra yollarına bağlı hastalıklar literatüre göre yüksek, akut apandisit olguları ise literatüre göre çok düşük bulundu. (JAEM 2012; 11: 212-5)
