Sponsored by Amasya University · Observational
It is not known whether appendectomy for acute appendicitis (AA) increases the Cesarean section (CS) rate and whether CS increases the likelihood of AA and appendectomy in the early puerperium. In this study, delivery type and delivery outcomes and appendectomy during pregnancy and puerperium were analyzed.
This cross-sectional retrospective study was performed on 11513 women, delivered during 2015-2020. Inclusion criteria were patients submitted to appendectomy for AA during pregnancy and the first six weeks after delivery. Evaluating parameters were age, parity, gestational week at birth, delivery type, and babies' birth weight.
412 studies on the registry are indexed under Appendicitis; 62 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 32 is below the median of 200 across 150 observational studies indexed under Appendicitis.
