We aim to see incidental appendectomy (IA) was worth or not during the laparoscopic treatment of intussusception.
This study included forty-eight patients who underwent a laparoscopic procedure for idiopathic intussusception without intestinal resection between April 2014 and April 2021. The Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests for categorical variables and the Student -test for continuous variables were used to analyze and compare patient characteristics.
IA was performed on 63% (30/48) of patients after surgical reduction, while 18 (37%), did not. Patients who underwent IA had a higher total cost (16,618 ± 2,174 vs.14,301 ± 5,206, = 0.036), and a longer mean operation duration (59 ± 19 vs.45 ± 21, = 0.025). The distribution of the PO time, length of hospital stay, PCs, and RI did not differ significantly. The histopathological evaluation of the 30 resected appendices revealed five (17%) with signs of acute inflammation, 20 (66%) with chronic signs of inflammation, and five (17%) with inconspicuous appendices.
IA is linked to a longer average operation time and a higher total cost. There is insufficient evidence to recommend IA during laparoscopic intussusception treatment. The risks and benefits of IA need further study.
我们旨在探讨在腹腔镜治疗肠套叠过程中进行阑尾切除术(IA)是否值得。
本研究纳入了2014年4月至2021年4月期间48例接受腹腔镜手术治疗特发性肠套叠且未行肠切除的患者。分类变量采用卡方检验或Fisher精确检验,连续变量采用Student检验来分析和比较患者特征。
手术复位后,63%(30/48)的患者接受了IA,而18例(37%)未接受。接受IA的患者总费用更高(16,618±2,174 vs.14,301±5,206,P = 0.036),平均手术时间更长(59±19 vs.45±21,P = 0.025)。术后首次排气时间、住院时间、并发症和复发率的分布差异无统计学意义。对30例切除阑尾的组织病理学评估显示,5例(17%)有急性炎症迹象,20例(66%)有慢性炎症迹象,5例(17%)阑尾无明显病变。
IA与更长的平均手术时间和更高的总费用相关。在腹腔镜肠套叠治疗中,尚无足够证据推荐IA。IA的风险和益处需要进一步研究。
