OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relation between fruit seeds, plants residuals and appendicitis.
METHODS
Among cases that underwent appendectomy, the appendicitis cases having fruit seeds and undigested plant residuals in their etiology were examined retrospectively. Also, histopathological features, age, sex, and parameters of morbidity and mortality were used.
RESULTS
Fruit seed was found in one case (0.05%) with presence of pus in appendix lumen, undigested plant residuals in 7 cases (0.35%). It was determined that there were appendix inflammation in 2 of the plant residuals cases, while there were obstruction and lymphoid hyperplasia in the appendix lumen of 5 cases. No mortality was observed.
CONCLUSIONS
The ratio of acute appendicitis caused by plants is minimal among all appendectomised patients, but avoidence of eating undigested fruit seeds and chewing plants well may help to prevent appendicitis.
目的
探讨水果种子、植物残渣与阑尾炎之间的关系。
方法
回顾性研究在接受阑尾切除术的病例中，病因与水果种子及未消化植物残渣有关的阑尾炎病例。同时采用组织病理学特征、年龄、性别以及发病率和死亡率参数。
结果
在1例（0.05%）阑尾腔内有脓液的病例中发现水果种子，7例（0.35%）有未消化植物残渣。确定在2例植物残渣病例中有阑尾炎症，而在5例病例的阑尾腔内有梗阻和淋巴组织增生。未观察到死亡病例。
结论
在所有接受阑尾切除术的患者中，由植物引起的急性阑尾炎比例极小，但避免食用未消化的水果种子并充分咀嚼植物可能有助于预防阑尾炎。
