Acute Appendicitis in Pregnancy: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study
Based on our data, acute appendectomy in pregnancy is associated with a higher rate of negative appendectomy and shorter operating time. Due to the small number of pregnant patients in the group and the occurrence of only one first trimester miscarriage of unknown etiology, it is not possible to clearly draw conclusion about the impact of acute appendectomy on the further course of pregnancy and further investigation is needed.
