- Purpose
With varied reports on the impact of time to appendectomy on clinical outcomes, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of preoperative in-hospital delay on the outcome for patients with acute appendicitis. MethodsA retrospective review of 1,076 patients who had undergone an appendectomy between January 2010 and December 2013 was conducted. ResultsThe outcomes of surgery and the pathologic findings were analyzed according to elapsed time. The overall elapsed time from onset of symptoms to surgery was positively associated with advanced pathology, increased number of complications, and prolonged hospital stay. In-hospital elapsed time was not associated with any advanced pathology (P = 0.52), increased number of postoperative complications (P = 0.14), or prolonged hospital stay (P = 0.24). However, the complication rate was increased when the in-hospital elapsed time exceeded 18 hours. ConclusionAdvanced pathology and postoperative complication rate were associated with overall elapsed time from symptom onset to surgery rather than in-hospital elapse time. Therefore, a short-term delay of an appendectomy should be acceptable.

Abstract
PDF
Procedure for prolapsed hemorrhoid (PPH) is well recognized alternative to the traditional hemorrhoidectomy, and is associated with reduced pain and earlier return to normal activity. Over the past decade, there have been reports of severe life-threatening complications after a PPH, although the incidence is very low. Rectal perforation due to staple-line dehiscence is one of the serious complications that can cause severe pelvic sepsis or a pneumoretroperitoneum. Here, the first Korean case of a pneumoretroperitoneum due to staple-line dehiscence is described. -

Abstract
PDF
Although the sacrococcygeal area is the most common site for a teratoma in infants, it is a rare site for a teratoma in older patients. Most of the teratomas found in this area in adults are single mass, but in a few cases, multiple masses have been reported. The author reports on the case of an 18-year-old female patient with 3 presacral teratomas. The tumors were surgically removed via a transabdominal approach and were pathologically diagnosed as mature cystic teratomas. This case report indicates that an adult presacral teratoma can appear as multiple tumors, although it is very unusual. -
