Komplike apandisitler ile lökosit sayısı arasında herhangi bir ilişki var mı?

Amaç: Komplike apandisitlerde lökosit sayısının inflamasyonun şiddetine göre arttığını göstermeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Prospektif çalışmaya apandektomi yapılan 174 hasta dahil edildi. Hasta onamları alındı. Apandisit tipleri; apandisit olmayan, non-komplike apandisit ve komplike apandisit şeklinde guruplandırıldı. Lökosit sayısı ise; 6000/uL ve altında olan (L1), 600112000/uL (L2), 12001-16000/uL (L3) ve 16001/uL'den büyük (L4) şeklinde gruplandırıldı. Apandisit tipleri lökosit sayılarıyla karşılaştırıldı. P

Is there any relationship between complicated appendicitis and leucocyte counts?

Aim: We aim to show the increasing in leucocyte count according to severity of inflammation in complicated appendicitis. Materials and Methods: 174 patients who had appendectomy were included in this prospective study. Patient consents were taken. Types of appendicitis were categorized as negative appendicitis, non-complicated appendicitis, and complicated appendicitis. Groups were formed according to leucocyte count as 6000/uL and below (L1), 600112000/ uL (L2), 12001-16000 /uL (L3), and 16001/ uL and higher (L4). Types of appendicitis were compared with leucocyte counts. P
