Core Tip |
This retrospective study evaluated the efficacy of the management of acute appendicitis during the COVID-19 pandemic. Emergency preoperative management included appendicitis evaluation and COVID-19 screening. Our research shows the number of perforated appendicitis with longer chief complaint duration was higher than last year. The shunt used in the simple and complex groups not only supplied appropriate treatment but also reduced the pressure for emergency surgery preparation. Laparoscopic appendectomy was recommended if COVID-19 screening results were negative. No COVID-19 infection occurred. Our management effectively reduced the influence of the pandemic and minimized nosocomial infection risk. |
