Anatomi
ACUTE APPENDICSITIS
Predisposing factor Causative factor Obstructive agents : - low fibers diet : - obstruction - infection : - in the lumen of the appendix: - fecalith - corpus aleinum - parasite : - intra lumenar origin - haematogenous origin
Infective agents
Pathology
Obstruction of the lumen Mucous retention Distension (increase intraluminar pressure) Lymph and venous occlusion Mucosal and sub mucosal oedema Bacterial translokation Inflammation / suppuration Pus enter the lumen Over distension Arteriak occlusion Pressure necrosis / gangrene perforation
Progression of disease
- Gangrenous
- Perforation : - general peritonitis - peri appendicular mass: - phlegmoon / infiltrate - absces - sepsis
Symtoms
- abdominal pain: - visceral - somatic - anorectia, nausea, vomiting - obstipation - Others: - dysuria - leucorrhoea
Signs
- Tenderness on the rigth iliac fossa (specifically on Mc Bourney point) - Rebound tenderness - Muscular guarding (locally) - Rectal examination : pain in the right - sometimes : - right rectal rigidity - hypersensitive on the sherens triangle
Signs
Psoas sign
Obturator sign
Laboratory finding
- Leucocytosis
Differential Diagnosis
1. G.I Tract.
- mesenteric lymphadenitis - peptic ulcer perforation - acute cholecystitis - diverticulitis : - jejunal - ileal (Meckel) - colonic - ileitis terminalis - tumor of the cecum
2. Urinary tract. - rigth ureteric colic - urinary tract infection 3. Gynaecologic disease. - ruptured ectopic pregnancy - twisted / torsion ovarian cyste - ruptured ovarian cyste - adnexitis 4. Non specific abdominal pain
Treatment
Acute appendicsitis : appendectomy Negative pathology : 15 20 % perappendicular mass : - conservative treatment : - bed rest (fowler position) - liquid diet - antibiotic if resolution : appendectomy a froid if deteriorate : laparatomy & appendectomy Radical treatment : laparatomy & appendectomy General peritonitis : laparatomy & appendectomy
Regimen
CHRONIC APPENDICITIS
- Chronic abdominal pain in the rigth iliac fossa, but not severe - Continue or intermittent - sometimes gastritis like symptoms - The lumen of the appendix not totally obstructed - Appendicogram : - non filling - partial filling - filling defect
