Keywords:
Acute appendicitis, Hemicolectomy, AppendectomyAbstract
The present research work is qualitative, retrospective, cross-sectional, which seeks to associate complicated acute appendicitis with right hemicolectomy as an implemented surgical technique.
The universe was a group of 973 patients with acute appendicitis from which a population of 113 who had complicated acute appendicitis according to medical criteria was selected.
As a conclusion, it was possible to define that the right hemicolectomy surgical technique is little used in complicated appendicitis, it is reserved for critical cases; it has a higher incidence in males between 46 and 55 years of age; it is associated with acute appendicitis complicated by abdominal sepsis and colon cancer.
