Outcome and Quality of Life in Obese Patients Underwent Laparoscopic vs. Open Appendectomy

Obesity Clinical Trial

Official title:
Outcome and Quality of Life in Obese Patients Underwent Laparoscopic vs. Open Appendectomy

Clinical Trial Summary

Although obesity is a popular reason for choosing laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) versus open appendectomy (OA), however, the question of whether there is a difference remains. The goal of the present study is to investigate if there is a difference between OA and LA in obese patients. In the present study, Fifty-eight obese patients were diagnosed with acute appendicitis according to Alvarado score at the department of surgery at Suez Canal university hospitals from March 2020 till August 2021were included. The study participants were assigned to two groups, after their approval: LA and OA. The investigators hypothesized that evaluating the Outcome and Quality of life of laparoscopic appendectomy for the obese patients would be a potential step for standardization of the laparoscopic approach for obese patients who are arranged for appendectomy.

Clinical Trial Description

Although obesity is a popular reason for choosing laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) versus open appendectomy (OA), however, the question of whether there is a difference remains. The investigators' goal is to investigate if there is a difference between OA and LA in obese patients. Fifty-eight obese patients were diagnosed with acute appendicitis according to Alvarado score at the department of surgery at Suez Canal university hospitals from March 2020 till August 2021were included. The study participants were assigned to two groups, LA and OA. This study aimed to compare LA and OA regarding intraoperative complications, length of hospital stays, post-operative pain, and rate of postoperative complications. Meanwhile, using the SF-36 scoring questionnaire, the quality of life was compared between both groups. ;
