Purpose

Nonoperative management followed by an interval appendectomy is a commonly used approach for treating patients with perforated appendicitis with abscess formation. As minimally-invasive surgery has developed, single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) is increasingly being used to treat many conditions. We report our initial experience with this procedure using a multichannel single-port.

Methods

The study included 25 adults who underwent a single-port laparoscopic interval appendectomy for perforated appendicitis with periappendiceal abscess by using a single-port with or without needlescopic grasper between June 2014 and January 2016.

Results

Of the 25 patients, 9 (36%) required percutaneous drainage for a median of 7 days (5–14 days) after insertion, and 3 (12%) required conversion to reduced-port laparoscopic surgery with a 5-mm port insertion because of severe adhesions to adjacent organs. Of 22 patients undergoing SPLS, 13 underwent pure SPLS (52.0%) whereas 9 patients underwent SPLS with a 2-mm needle instrument (36.0%). Median operation time was 70 minutes (30–155 minutes), and a drainage tube was placed in 9 patients (36.0%). Median total length of incision was 2.5 cm (2.0–3.0 cm), and median time to soft diet initiation and length of stay in the hospital were 2 days (0–5 days) and 3 days (1–7 days), respectively. Two patients (8.0%) developed postoperative complications: 1 wound site bleeding and 1 surgical site infection.

Conclusion

Conservative management followed by a single-port laparoscopic interval appendectomy using a multichannel single-port appears feasible and safe for treating patients with acute perforated appendicitis with periappendiceal abscess.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was aimed to disclose main affected organisms in patients with perforated appendicitis and to analyze correlations between culture-sensitivity test and infectious complication.
METHODS
In 26 of 421 patients who had undergone appendectomy due to acute appendicitis from April 1996 to March 1999, we performed culture-sensitivity test. The clinical records of these patients were collected and reviewed about clinicopathological features and results of culture-sensitivity test, retrospectively. Culture material was collected in BBL transport media with cotton swab and cultured by MacConkey agar plate. The method of MIC by VITEK was used for sensitivity test.
RESULTS
Cultured organisms were E. coli (18 cases), Pseudomonas (4), Enterobacter (2), Enterococcus (1), and Proteus (1). In sensitivity test, sensitive antibiotics against all cultured organism were amikacin, ceftriaxone, imipenem and cefotetan. But ampicillin, sulfametoxazole/trimethoprim and piperacillin were mostly resistant. Infectious complications occurred in 11 of 26 patients (42.3%) and consisted of 9 wound infection and 2 intraabdominal abscess. Especially, 13 of 18 cases in which E. coli were isolated, were resistant to ampicillin. And they had infectious complications statistically more than those who were not resistant to ampicillin (p=0.036).
CONCLUSIONS
E. coli was a main organism in perforated appendicitis. In case of ampicillin-resistant E. coli, the patients were susceptible to infectious complication such as wound infection and intraabdominal abscess.
