Abstract (english)
The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the number of patients presenting to the emergency room with acute appendicitis and subsequent results of surgical treatment. Our single center retrospective study was conducted in Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center, Zagreb, Croatia. We analyzed data on the patients diagnosed with acute appendicitis, their duration of symptoms, length of hospital stay, histopathologic diagnosis, and operative techniques,... More recorded from September 1, 2019 to October 17, 2020. The results showed a statistically significant increase in the ratio of open laparotomies (p=0.006) and ratio of perforated appendicitis (p=0.047) during the COVID-19 pandemic in relation to the pre-pandemic period. The time between symptom onset and hospitalization, measured in days, did not demonstrate a statistically significant increase (p=0.379), and minor increase in the postoperative length of stay was not statistically significant either (p=0.879).

Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ove studije bio je procijeniti utjecaj pandemije COVID-19 na broj bolesnika koji su dolazili u hitnu službu s akutnim apendicitisom te na rezultate daljnjeg kirurškog liječenja. Studija je provedena u KBC „Sestre milosrdnice“, Zagreb, Hrvatska. Retrospektivno smo analizirali podatke bolesnika uključujući trajanje simptoma, duljinu hospitalizacije, patohistološku dijagnozu i operativni pristup u razdoblju od 1. rujna 2019. do 17. listopada 2020. godine. Naša studija je zabilježila... More statistički značajan porast udjela otvorenih laparotomija (p=0,006) te udjela perforirajućih apendicitisa (p=0,047) za vrijeme pandemije COVID-19 u odnosu na razdoblje prije pandemije. Nije bilo statistički značajnog odstupanja u vremenu od nastupa simptoma do hospitalizacije (p=0,379), kao ni statistički značajne promjene duljine hospitalizacije nakon operacije (p=0,879). Less
