ABSTRACT

Introducción: Existe una controversia acerca del mejor enfoque para el tratamiento de la apendicitis aguda no complicada. Este metaanálisis buscó evaluar la eficacia, recurrencia de la patología, presencia de complicaciones mayores, y duración de la estancia hospitalaria en adultos con apendicitis aguda no complicada. Materiales y Método: Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática de ensayos clínicos aleatorizados en las bases de datos PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase y Cochrane Library hasta finales de octubre del 2022. El riesgo de sesgo y calidad de los estudios incluidos en el estudio fueron evaluados mediante la herramienta RoB 2.0. de la Colaboración Cochrane. La síntesis de datos fue realizada a través del software Cochrane Review Manager (RevMan; version 5.3). Resultados: 6 estudios fueron incluidos, con un total de 1.862 pacientes. La probabilidad de presentar una mejoría clínica definitiva en el grupo que recibió antibioticoterapia fue menor (RR 0,5; IC95% 0,92-0,98; p = 0,004; IC2 = 44%). La probabilidad de presentar una recurrencia de la apendicitis en el grupo que recibió antibioticoterapia fue notablemente superior (RR 94,86; IC95% 30,73-292,81; p < 0,00001; IC2 = 0%). El grupo conservador presentó un menor riesgo de presentar una complicación mayor (RR 0,55; IC95% 0,36-0,85; p = 0,007; IC2 = 0%). El tratamiento conservador presentó una duración de la estancia hospitalaria superior que la apendicectomía (MD 0,34; IC95% 0,25-0,42; p < 0,00001; IC2 = 64%). Conclusiones: Esta revisión sistemática demuestra que, en términos de eficacia, recurrencia del cuadro y duración de la estancia hospitalaria, la antibioticoterapia es inferior a la apendicectomía en adultos con apendicitis aguda no complicada y superior en evitar la presencia de complicaciones mayores.


Introduction: There is controversy about the best approach for the treatment of uncomplicated acute appendicitis. This meta-analysis sought to assess efficacy, disease recurrence, presence of major complications, and length of hospital stay in adults with uncomplicated acute appendicitis. Materials and Method: A systematic search for randomized clinical trials was performed in the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases up to the end of October 2022. The risk of bias and quality of the studies included in the study were assessed. using the RoB 2.0 tool. of the Cochrane Collaboration. Data synthesis was performed using the Cochrane Review Manager software (RevMan; version 5.3). Results: 6 studies were included, with a total of 1.862 patients. The probability of presenting a definitive clinical improvement in the group that received antibiotic therapy was lower (RR 0.5; CI95% 0.92-0.98; p = 0.004; CI2 = 44%). The probability of presenting a recurrence of appendicitis in the group that received antibiotic therapy was notably higher (RR 94.86; 95%CI 30.73-292.81; p < 0.00001; CI2 = 0%). The conservative group presented a lower risk of presenting a major complication (RR 0.55; CI95% 0.36-0.85; p = 0.007; CI2 = 0%). Conservative treatment had a longer hospital stay than appendectomy (MD 0.34; 95%CI 0.250.42; p < 0.00001; CI2 = 64%). Conclusions: This systematic review shows that, in terms of efficacy, recurrence of the condition, and length of hospital stay, antibiotic therapy is inferior to appendectomy in adults with uncomplicated acute appendicitis, and superior in avoiding the presence of major complications.

ABSTRACT

<b><br>Introduction:</b> Acute appendicitis is one of the most frequent emergencies in hospitals around the world; it requires early surgical treatment in complicated cases. One of the challenges that the surgeon faces during appendectomy is when the base of the appendix is compromised by either a perforation or gangrene. To show the surgical strategies that have been reported, as well as the complications associated with a compromised appendicular base in a complicated acute appendicitis.</br> <b><br>Methods:</b> A bibliographic search was carried out in the databases of Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. The search expression ("appendiceal stump closure" OR "Closure of the appendiceal stump" OR "Management of appendiceal stump") was used to search for articles. The inclusion criteria were observational studies (case reports, case series, or cross-sectional, case-control, or cohort studies).</br> <b><br>Discussion:</b> Different techniques have been reported for the treatment of a compromised appendicular base. Among the most used are primary closure, partial resection of the cecum, cecostomy tube, ileocecectomy, and right hemicolectomy. The most frequent complications are surgical site infection, intra-abdominal abscess, postoperative ileus, intestinal obstruction, and others.</br> <b><br>Conclusions:</b> The appendicular base, compromised by necrosis or perforation, requires adequate treatment in order to prevent dehiscence of the appendicular stump sutures and fecal peritonitis. A number of surgical options have been reported.</br>.
