ABSTRACT

Objective: This study aims to determine the prevalence of right hemicolectomy as a treatment in postoperative patients diagnosed with complicated acute appendicitis at the Civil Hospital of Culiacan. Materials and Methods: Observational, retrospective, cross-sectional, and descriptive study, where the electronic clinical records of adult patients operated on for complicated acute appendici-tis at the Civil Hospital of Culiacan from March 2021 to February 2024 were reviewed. Results: The clinical records of 88 patients who underwent appendectomy for complicated acute appendicitis were analyzed, 52 men (59.1%) and 36 women (40.9%), 2 pa-tients (2.2%) required a right hemicolectomy secondary to necrosis and cecal involvement. Conclusion: The study determined that the prevalence of right hemicolectomy in our hospital is 2.2% in complicated acute appendicitis cases.
