1、Anatomy Varied anatomyLength: 510 cm, narrow lumenhaustra of colonEpidemiologyThe most common acute abdomen disease The incidence of appendectomy appears to be declining due to more accurate preoperative diagnosis.Despite newer imaging techniques, acute appendicitis can be very difficult to diagnose
2、. Pathophisiology Simple appendicitisSuppurative appendicitis Gangrenous appendicitisPerforated appendicitisPeritonitisAbscess around the appendixMucocele of appendixPathophysiologyAcute appendicitis is thought to begin with obstruction of the lumenObstruction can result from food matter, adhesions,
3、 or lymphoid hyperplasiaAppendix is twisted, and Lumen of appendix is narrow, result in obstructionMucosal secretions continue to increase intraluminal pressureEtiology 1. The anatomy characteristics2. The tissue features3. fecality, foreign body obstruction4. Parasites cause the mucosa damage5. adh

6、appendiceal contents into the peritoneumPathophysiologyInitial luminal distention triggers visceral afferent pain fibers, which enter at the 10th thoracic vertebral level.This pain is generally vague and poorly localized.Pain is typically felt in the periumbilical or epigastric area.PathophysiologyA
7、s inflammation continues, the serosa and adjacent structures become inflamedThis triggers somatic pain fibers, innervating the peritoneal structuresTypically causing pain in the RLQPathophysiologyThe change in stimulation form visceral to somatic pain fibers explains the classic migration of pain in
8、 the periumbilical area to the RLQ seen with acute appendicitis.PathophysiologyExceptions exist in the classic presentation due to anatomic variability of the appendixAppendix can be retrocecal causing the pain to localize to the right flankIn pregnancy, the appendix can be shifted and patients can
9、present with RUQ painPathophysiologyIn some males, retroileal appendicitis can irritate the ureter and cause testicular pain.Pelvic appendix may irritate the bladder or rectum causing suprapubic pain, pain with urination, or feeling the need to defecateMultiple anatomic variations explain the diffic

If there is increased pain then the sign is positivePhysical examPsoas sign: place patient in L lateral decubitus and extend R leg at the hip. If there is pain, the sign is positive.Rectal exam: pain can be most pr

15、n first 24 h, but common after ruptureDiagnosisAcute appendicitis should be suspected in anyone with epigastric, periumbilical, right flank, or right sided abd pain who has not had an appendectomyWomen of child bearing age need a pelvic exam and a pregnancy test.Additional studies: CBC, UA, imaging
16、studiesDiagnosisThe WBC is of limited value. Sensitivity of an elevated WBC is 70-90%, but specificity is very low.But, +predictive value of high WBC is 92% and predictive value is 50%CRP and ESR have been studied with mixed resultsDiagnosisImaging studies: include X-rays, US, CTX rays of abd are ab
