Periappendicitis seems to be a novel manifestation of infections with Chlamydia trachomatis. In seven of 112 women with laparoscopically verified acute salpingitis, secondary appendicitis was diagnosed and histologically confirmed. The genital tract in all seven patients harbored Chlamydia trachomatis but not Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The fallopian tubes should be scrutinized when an inflamed appendix is removed from a sexually active woman. Signs of salpingitis should then lead to appropriate microbiologic, therapeutic and epidemiologic measures, including contact tracing.
阑尾周围炎似乎是沙眼衣原体感染的一种新表现。在112例经腹腔镜证实为急性输卵管炎的女性中,有7例被诊断为继发性阑尾炎并经组织学证实。所有7例患者的生殖道均有沙眼衣原体感染,但无淋病奈瑟菌感染。当从性活跃女性身上切除发炎的阑尾时,应仔细检查输卵管。如果出现输卵管炎的迹象,应采取适当的微生物学、治疗和流行病学措施,包括接触者追踪。
