About this study
Official title: Evaluation of Percutaneous Drainage of Appendicular Abscess, is There Any Need for Further Open Drainage ?
This study aims to detect indications of surgical drainage after failure Ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage This study will include any male and female above 18 years old that presented with appendicular abscess Patients with appendicular abscess above the age of 18 years old All patients with generalized peritonitis or immunocompromised patients will be excluded from the study
Read the detailed description
Prospective randomized study we will collect 30 patients diagnosed with appendicular abscess and they all will undergo Ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage of abscess and the group who will fail to insert the pigtail will undergo surgical drainage we will record the time of operation, number of cases with intraoperative complications and then follow up these patients during time of hospital stay for post operative pain and paralytic ileus
Study outcomes:
Primary outcomes:
- Incidence of intra operative complications
- Length of operations
- Post operative pain
- Incidence of intraoperative complications as injury of important structures
- Lenght of hospital stay
- Incidence of post operative complications related to surgery as wound infection, recurrence, intestinal obstruction
Secondary outcomes:
- Cosmotic outcomes
- Incidence of recurrence of pathology
- Patient satisfaction
- Conditions
- Appendiceal Abscess
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
1-Incidence of intraoperative complications
Measured: Baseline
