简要总结
This study identifies the incidence of appendiceal Enterobius vermicularis (E.v) infestation in all the patients undergoing appendectomy and evaluates the relationship between E.v infestation of the appendix and the acute appendicitis.
详细描述
All the patients undergoing appendectomy surgical procedure for clinical picture of acute appendicitis in 3-years period at our referral hospital were evaluated to pick up the Enterobius vermicularis infestation of the appendix. These cases were evaluated for clinico-laboratory characterization to define the incidence in our country and the relationship between the E.v and initiation of the the inflammatory process to study the possibility of limitation of surgical intervention in acute abdomen conditions.

结局指标
主要结局
Incidence of Appendiceal Enterobius vermicularis
时间窗: 3 years
An incidence of Enterobius infestation will be assessed by studying all the received specimens during a 3 years-period using formatting a master sheet and processing in Excel program
Association between acute inflammation and Enterobius vermicularis infestation
时间窗: 3 years
All the studied Enterobius vermicularis cases will be evaluated microscopically to record the count of acute inflammatory cells per millimeter (mm) and per High Power Field (HPF) using the microscope scale measurement. This count will be compared with the inflamed appendectomy specimens without Enterobius infestation to assess the hypothesis of the association between the Enterobius infestation and the acute appendicitis. Also special stain (congo red) will be implicated in some indicated cases to detect eosinophils, eosinophils will be positively staines (orange color stain means positive) if the stain is faint that means negative and the cell is not eosinophil
