Abstract
Amaç
Amyand herni inflame olsun ya da olmasın fıtık kesesi içinde apendix vermiformisin bulunmasıdır. İngüinal herni cerrahisi sırasında tespit edilen bu durum karşısında apendektomi yapılıp yapılmayacağı halen tartışmalıdır. Bu çalışmada kliniğimizde Amyand herni tespit edilen hastaların cerrahi sonuçlarını sunmayı amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntem
Farklı iki merkezde ingüinal herni nedeniyle opere edilen 2831 hasta içinden Amyand herni tanısı alan 14 hastanın dosyaları retrospektif incelendi. Hastaların demografik verileri, Losanoff ve Basson tipleri, ameliyat türleri, postoperatif seyirleri ve patolojik sonuçları değerlendirildi.
Bulgular
Hastaların 6(%42.8)sına acil 8’i elektif cerrahi yapılmıştı.8 hastada akut apandisit mevcutken 6 hastada apendiks normaldi. Losanoff ve Basson tip 1 olan 4 hastaya apendetomisiz yamalı fıtık tamiri, 1 hastaya apendektomi ve yamalı fıtık tamiri; tip 2 olan 4 hastaya apendektomi ve yamalı fıtık tamiri; tip 3 olan 5 hastaya apendektomi ve yamasız fıtık tamiri yapıldı.
Sonuç
Amyand herni nadir görülen bir durumdur. Preoperatif tanısı oldukça zordur. Tedavinin tam ve doğru olarak gerçekleştirilmesi için herni cerrahisi ile ilgilenen cerrahların dikkatli olması gerekmektedir.
Aim
Amyand Hernia is presence of appendix vermiformis in the hernia sac whether appendix have inflammation or not. Appendectomy should be performed is still controversial in the face of this condition that was detected during inguinal hernia surgery. In this study, we aimed to present the surgical results of patients with Amyand hernia in our clinic.
Materials and Methods
Retrospectively reviewed the data of 14 patients who were diagnosed with Amyand hernia during the operation from 2831 patients who were operated on for inguinal hernia. Demographic data of patients, Losanoff and Basson classification types, types of surgery, postoperative course and pathological results were evaluated.
Results
Six of the patients (42.8%) underwent elective emergency surgery. While 8 patients had acute appendicitis, 6 patient’s appendix vermiformis was normal. Four patients with Losanoff and Basson classification type 1 repaired with mesh and without appendectomy, 1 patient were performed appendectomy and repaired with mesh; 4 patients with type 2 were performed appendectomy and with mesh hernia repair; 5 patients with type 3 were performed appendectomy and without mesh hernia repair.
Conclusion
Amyand hernia is a rare condition. Preoperative diagnosis is very difficult. Surgeons interested in hernia surgery must be careful to ensure that the treatment is complete and accurate
