| Core Tip |
Clinical data from patients with acute appendicitis, with and without postoperative incision infections, were compared to analyze factors influencing incision infection. This study explored gram-negative bacteria release endotoxin and toll-like receptor 4 expression in the blood of patients with acute appendicitis, and identified reliable indicators for predicting postoperative incision infections. Pathological type, surgical method, surgical time, and incision length are significant factors influencing the postoperative incision infection risk. |
