Abstract:

Objective. To evaluate the results of laparoscopic treatment of patients with advanced appendicular peritonitis. Material and methods. There were 271 patients with acute appendicitis complicated by peritonitis. The main group consisted of patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy after diagnostic laparoscopy (n=231), the control group — diagnostic laparoscopy followed by conversion to median laparotomy (n=36). Four extremely ill patients were operated through laparotomy and excluded from the further analysis. Results. Diagnostic laparoscopy was performed in 267 patients with advanced appendicular peritonitis. Laparoscopic appendectomy, debridement and abdominal drainage were performed in 231 (85.2%) patients. Mean age of patients was 44±18.5 years, duration of disease — 36.2±20.3 hours. Diffuse peritonitis was diagnosed in 219 (82%) patients, advanced peritonitis — in 48 (16.5%) cases. Incidence of conversion was 13.5%. Mortality was absent in both groups. Postoperative morbidity was significantly higher in the conversion group (72.2% vs. 29.4%, p<0.0001). Conclusion. Laparoscopic interventions for common appendicular peritonitis are feasible, effective and reduce postoperative morbidity.
