Epiploik Apendajıt ve Omental Enfarkt
Özet
Epiploik apendajit ve omental enfarkt, kolonik epiploik appendikslerin veya omental yağ dokusunun segmental iskemik nekrozu ve buna eşlik eden steril inflamasyon ile karakterize, çoğu olguda kendini sınırlayan iki benign tablodur. Klinik prezantasyonun apandisit ve akut divertikülit ile benzerliği, acil serviste gereksiz antibiyotik kullanımı, hastaneye yatış ve cerrahi girişimlere yol açabilir. Kontrastlı abdominal bilgisayarlı tomografi tipik morfolojik bulgularla tanıyı yüksek doğrulukla destekler ve güvenli konservatif yönetimi mümkün kılar. Bu bölümde epiploik apendajit ve omental enfarktın anatomi-patofizyoloji temeli, klinik ve görüntüleme özellikleri, ayırıcı tanı ve acil serviste pratik yönetim ilkeleri kanıta dayalı olarak özetlenmiştir.
Epiploic appendagitis and omental infarction are benign, often self-limited conditions caused by segmental ischemic necrosis of colonic epiploic appendages or omental fat with sterile inflammation. They frequently mimic appendicitis and acute diverticulitis, which may lead to unnecessary antibiotics, hospital admission, or surgery in the emergency department. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT) provides characteristic morphologic findings that support an accurate diagnosis and enable safe conservative management. This chapter reviews the anatomy–pathophysiology, clinical and imaging features, differential diagnosis, and a pragmatic emergency department approach for both entities based on current evidence.
