- W2425249307 abstract "Our study on acute appendicitis in adults aimed to report current data in Yaounde, Cameroon. This retrospective study included 323 patients, with 185 men against 138 women (sex ratio: 1.37). Mean age was 28.3 years old. Incidence was of 4.6%. Symptoms appeared within a delay of 3 to 4 days and consisted of the triad: abdominal pain (97.5%), vomiting (44%) and anorexia (39.9%). 99.7% of the patients presented with hyperthermia whereas defence on palpation in the right iliac fossa was noted in 307 patients. Rectal examination was evocative in 92.7% of the cases. Hypemeutrophilia was found in 84.9% of the patients. Plain abdominal radiography (PAR) orientated the diagnosis in 74.3% of cases; echography was very useful in abscesses (6,5%). 96.7% of the patients underwent surgery within an average time of 48 hours. McBurney incision was performed in 232 cases. Appendice in the inner latero caecal position was predominant in 243 cases. In seven cases (2.2%), appendice was normal; 2 Meckel's diverticula were discovered (0.6%). We carried out 309 anterograde appendectomies, 317 irvaginations of the appendicular root and 14 epiplooplasties. 302 histological exams were performed; catarrhal appendicitis were ranking first: 167 cases. Morbidity reached 14.2% dominated by sepsis (71.7%). The mortality rate was 0.6%. A better diagnostic approach together with a better sensitisation of the population may shorten surgical delays inducing a decrease of morbidity of acute appendicitis in Cameroon." @default.
