Abstract Background Although laparoscopic appendectomy is the criterion-standard treatment method for acute appendicitis, the decision on laparoscopic or conventional technique is usually made according to individual perspectives. The reasons affecting this individual point of view include whether the disease is complicated, the infrastructure of the hospital, the patient's comorbid factors, and previous intra-abdominal operations. This cross-sectional retrospective study aimed to evaluate the safety of laparoscopic appendectomy in patients with a possible diagnosis of “appendicitis” in patients who had undergone previous abdominal surgery. Methods Patients who were operated on with the diagnosis of acute appendicitis in our clinic between March 2021 and March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were grouped as those with a history of abdominal surgery (group 1) and without (group 2). In addition, demographic data of the patients (age, sex), body mass index, presence of comorbid disease, history of abdominal surgery, operation time, rate of conversion to open surgery, postoperative hospital stay, complications, and radiological and pathological appendix size were recorded. Results A total of 181 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 32.51 ± 15.89 years. Seventy (38.7%) of the patients were female, and 111 (61.3%) were male. Thirty-four patients (18.8%) were in group 1, and 111 patients (81.2%) were in group 2. The mean age, body mass index, and operation time in group 1 were statistically higher than in group 2 (P < 0.001). However, there was no difference between the groups regarding postoperative hospital stay, radiological and pathological appendix size, conversion to open surgery, and presence and severity of complications (P > 0.05). Conclusion In line with the data the authors have shown in their study, a laparoscopic appendectomy can be performed safely in patients who have undergone abdominal surgery. Therefore, surgeons should not stray from a laparoscopic appendectomy when they see an abdominal incision.

Abstract Background Following transurethral resection of the prostate, postprocedure macroscopic hematuria must be evaluated. We developed a five-color table hematuria grading scale with visualized color references for health care workers to evaluate postprocedure hematuria severity and compared it with assessments made using the text hematuria grading scale. Methods Thirty hematuria samples from patients who had undergone transurethral resection of the prostate were evaluated twice by 17 doctors and 13 nurses. The main outcome was the postprocedure macroscopic hematuria severity, measured using the means obtained from the two hematuria grading methods (Meantext and Meanfive-color). Furthermore, we investigated the association between demographic factors including occupation, training years, and whether a urologist was involved in hematuria evaluation. Results The Meantext for 30 patients was 2.2489 ± 1.96*0.76862, whereas the Meanfive-color was 2.4222 ± 1.96*0.91268. The paired t test revealed a significant difference between Meantext and Meanfive-color (P = 0.00), meaning that the severity observed by medical staff was significantly milder using the text compared with the five-color hematuria grading scale. The Wilcoxon signed rank test between the variances of the two hematuria grading scales showed a Z score of −1.127 and p value of 0.026 without significant difference. Conclusions Our findings reveal that hematuria grading is method-dependent. Hematuria severity in patients who had undergone transurethral resection of the prostate with macroscopic hematuria assessed using a hematuria grading scale without visualized color references may be underestimated in clinical practice. With visualized color references, consistent counts did not negatively correlate to fewer years of experience in the surgery department.
