Filter by:A comparison study was performed between laparoscopic appendectomy and open appendectomy in acute setting in tertiary hospital to access the outcome of postoperative pain and hospital stay. As the popularity of laparoscopic appendectomy has failed in major tertiary hospital due to huge amount of patient load in which open appendectomy was performed.This study was performed to prove that outcome of laparoscopic appendectomy are far better than open appendectomy and to increase the use of laparoscopic surgery in acute settings
Aimed to the study evaluate the superiority of intracorporal sutures and Hem-o-lok clips in terms of efficiency.
Clinical and histopathological description of three cases of Kawasaki disease with acute abdomen.
Intravenous lidocaine - a potent local anesthetic with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties has been shown to be an effective adjunct that reduces intra and postoperative opioid consumption and facilitates pain management in adults. In children population promising but limited evidence is available. The study was planned to evaluate the efficacy of continuous intravenous infusion of lidocaine to reduce opioid consumption during and after laparoscopic appendectomy in children.
This is a randomized study of patients 2-17 years old who are diagnosed with perforated appendicitis and develop an abscess after laparoscopy that is subsequently drained. Patients will be randomized to either receive an 8-day or a 4-day course of antibiotics. The aim of this study is to determine whether duration of antibiotic treatment at discharge demonstrates significant differences in clinical outcomes.
Acute apandicitis is the one of most common cause of abdominal pain.Most of center still use open appendectomy(OA) technic for acute apandisitis.But Semm was defined Laparoskopic appendectomy(LA) with 3 ports in 1983.Today surgeons skill and experience ara increasing about LA day by day. Because of advantages of LA , this technical tend to be gold standart in acute apandisitis. In LA , all of centers use same technic as 3 ports for the surgery. Port sites located 1 infraumbilical , 1 right lower quadrant and 1 left lower quadrent in this surgery. But 3 dermatome lines have been effected in this style of location .This 3 points causes more pain postoperatively.In our study we will define the port locations into the same dermatome line (T10) . Purpose of this research is incerasing the postoperative pain score ,decreasing postoperative need of analgesia and develop the patient satisfy.
Appendectomy is the most common surgical procedure. Chronic abdominal pain is an uncommon complication following appendectomy. It is observed that pediatric patients who have undergone abdominal surgical procedure complained of pain and discomfort in the postoperative period and these complaints may affect quality of life. We aimed to investigate the presence of postoperative chronic abdominal pain and discomfort in children aged 8-18 years underwent appendectomy and their social and physical effects. The records of children aged 8-18 years who underwent appendectomy, such as age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) classification score, the type of surgical procedure, and anesthetic technique were obtained. Children had inclusions crietrias, pain was assessed using numerical rating scale and their effects on life were assessed Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory parent and child versions questionnaire at sixth months after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence rate of leukemia between CT-exposed and CT-unexposed group in patients who underwent appendectomy in South Korea.
Surgical site infection is a common problem after open appendectomy. Irrigation of the surgical wound by topical antibiotics has been devised as a measure to reduce the incidence of wound infection. The present trial aims to assess the efficacy of layer-by-layer wound irrigation with gentamicin-saline solution in prevention of superficial surgical site infection after open appendectomy for acute uncomplicated appendicitis.
Laparoscopy has revolutionized the approach to a number of surgical problems causing a re-evaluation of several clinical strategies. Now it has become the standard treatment for majority of ailments including symptomatic gall stone disease, appendicitis, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), morbid obesity and colorectal disease. All these developments aim at minimizing perioperative morbidities, providing rapid postoperative recovery and enhancing patient's safety profile. One of the major limitations of conventional laparoscopy is lack of depth perception. Introduction of 3D imaging, has removed many of these technical obstacles. In 1993, Becker et al., reported that a 3D display might improve laparoscopic skills. Since then, many researchers have demonstrated benefit of 3D imaging . Starting from this, we can theorize an impact of 3D technologies on surgeon's learning curves. This concern is recently being demonstrated in experimental and clinical setting with improvement of hand-eye coordination, better laparoscopic skills and less time to learn surgical procedure. Usually junior surgeons (JS) start their activities with cholecystectomy and appendectomy but, despite an amount of literature regarding the first procedure, there is a 'black hole' regarding the use of 3D imaging in laparoscopic appendectomy (LA). The investigators decided to investigate the impact of 3D visualization on surgeons' and surgical outcome during laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) performed by junior surgeons (JS). Operative details and clinical aspect are both take in account in order to looking for any advantages or concerns conferred on JS in performing LA.
