Core Tip |
We report a patient admitted to hospital because of “right lower abdominal pain for six days”. The computerized tomography of patient showed that appendicitis with fecaliths and abscess in the pelvis. This case is appendiceal abscess treated by puncture drainage combined with endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) to prevent the recurrence of acute appendicitis, suggesting the feasibility of combining these two methods to treat patients with appendiceal abscess, and providing option for elderly patients who refuse surgery or cannot receive surgery because of poor health. Recently, research has confirmed that ERAT group has shorter hospitalization time, faster pain relief and lower acute appendicitis recurrence rate compared with antibiotic treatment alone, and ERAT can take out appendiceal fecaliths, which is a common cause of appendicitis. Therefore, we believe that ERAT can benefit for these patients. |
