Current Status of Research on Endoscopic Retrograde Appendicitis Therapy for Acute Appendicitis

急性阑尾炎是临床最常见的外科急腹症之一，阑尾切除术既往被认为是治疗急性阑尾炎的首选方法。内镜逆行性阑尾炎治疗术(Endoscopic Retrograde Appendicitis Therapy, ERAT)由我国刘冰熔教授于2012年首次在国际上提出，具有简单、微创、经济且能保留阑尾等优势。本文主要阐述ERAT治疗急性阑尾炎相关研究现状。Acute appendicitis is one of the most common surgical emergencies in the clinic, and appendectomy was previously considered the treatment of choice for acute appendicitis. Endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) was first proposed internationally by Prof. Liu in 2012, which has the advantages of simplicity, minimally invasive, economy and preservation of the appendix. This article mainly describes the current research status of ERAT for acute appendicitis.
