Abstract

Considering the high incidence of APPENDICITIS and its unreliable complications and the existence of controversies on the symptoms and for epidemiological diagnosis of the appendectomized patients, this study was performed on referrals of Imam Hossein Hospital during the years 1996-1999. The study was carried out on the existing data from medical records on the basis of age, gender, symptoms, and complications, pathologic report and outcome. The incidence of NEGATIVE APPENDECTOMY determined in patients with a probability of 95% in population. Out of 1452 appendectomized cases reviewed, 61% were male and 39% were female with a mean age of 24.7±12.4 years, 37% younger than 20 and 12% older than 70 years. The incidence of NEGATIVE APPENDECTOMY, acute APPENDICITIS, gangrene, and perforation were 15.4%, 64%, 14% and 6% respectively. NEGATIVE APPENDECTOMY was more common in women than in men (P<0.0005) and the incidence of abdominal pain, tenderness, and tachycardia were alike in both positive and negative groups. In addition, it was found out that leukocytosis and pain shift to RLQ were more common in positive APPENDICITIS in 27% of the cases (P<0.001). It is concluded that incidence of NEGATIVE APPENDECTOMY and perforation is low and because of its significance, it is needed to perform a clinical trial to determine the diagnosing power of clinical symptoms and paraclinical results for APPENDICITIS.
