ABSTRACT

Objective:

To analyze the diagnostic characteristics of complicated as acute appendicitis in pregnancy.

Methods:

Data of pregnant patients who were treated surgically and diagnosed as acute appendicitis pathologically at the Third Hospital of Peking University from Aug 2007 to Aug 2018 were collected,including uncomplicated acute appendicitis (UCAA) such as simple and purulent appendicitis, and complicated acute appendicitis (CAA) (perforated, gangrenous appendicitis or periappendiceal abscess).

Result:

There were 127 pregnant patients with acute appendicitis (47 CAA and 80 UCAA). CAA group had a higher proportion of positive symptoms, signs and examinations than UCAA group. ROC results showed that when pre-hospital time (the time from symptom onset to visiting the hospital, PT) and WBC critical values were 15.5 h and 17.11×10 3/mm 3, respectively, the sensitivity of CAA were 76.6% and 57.4%, and specificity of CAA were 75.0% and 82.5%. PT≥15.5 h ( OR=8.435,95% CI2.933-24.262) and WBC>17.11×10 3/mm 3 ( OR=5.215,95% CI1.626-16.729) were independent risk factors for CAA.

Conclusion:

CAA in pregnancy is associated with atypical clinical features, but the clinical manifestations of CAA are more serious. When PT exceeds 15 h and WBC exceeds 17.11×10 3/mm 3, CAA should be suspected and active operation should be suggested to avoid obstetric adverse outcomes.
