Neonatal appendicitis carries a high mortality rate. We describe a peculiar case presented after an incarcerated hernia manually reduced in a 4-week-old male neonate with ipsilateral undescended testis. Laparoscopy allowed a prompt recognition of an unexpected intra-abdominal life-threatening condition. Pathogenesis, treatment, and outcome are discussed on the light of a comprehensive literature review.
新生儿阑尾炎死亡率很高。我们描述了一例特殊病例,该病例发生在一名4周大的男性新生儿身上,其患有同侧隐睾并伴有嵌顿疝,经手法复位后出现了阑尾炎。腹腔镜检查使我们能够迅速识别出一种意想不到的、危及生命的腹腔内情况。我们根据全面的文献综述讨论了其发病机制、治疗方法及预后。
