Abstract	Objective: Surgical site infections (SSI) are incomparably troublesome and complicated, and some of them require an open abdomen (OA) procedure. While deciding the timing of abdominal closure, wound area calculation method and laboratory parameters can be used to guide the timing of abdominal closure after OA procedures. Patients and methods: The records of the patients who had undergone open abdomen during their treatment course and were followed up with vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) technique between December 2015 and December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The laboratory results before the first VAC application and the results after the VAC change were compared to determine a predictive parameter. The ImageJ program was used in five patients to compare the size of the wounds at the time of the decision to close them and before the first VAC application. Results: 102 patients were analyzed. The ratio of the last wound area to the wound area at the time of the first VAC application in five patients was 0.30, 0.41, 0.34, 0.27, 0.46 (mean: 0.36, standard deviation: 0.078) which were measured and calculated by ImageJ software. Conclusions: We think that the concept of wound reduction ratio, which was calculated by a computer program, can be used as a concrete equivalent of the wound closure eligibility criteria decided by clinical experience.

Abstract	Lymph node biopsy is indicated in patients with suspected malignancy or lymphadenopathy due to unclarified reasons. Lymph node biopsy can be performed as fine needle aspiration biopsy, core biopsy, or excisional lymph node biopsy. In particular, the diagnosis of malignant lymphoma is considered insufficient for oncological treatment unless classified into subgroups. Core biopsy and excisional biopsy can be performed to diagnose lymphoma and classify it into subgroups. Core biopsy may also be limited in some cases for the diagnosis of lymphoma. Therefore, patients are referred to surgical departments for excisional lymph node biopsy. It was aimed herein to analyze the results of excisional lymph node biopsies performed for diagnostic purposes in our department. Data on 73 patients having undergone diagnostic excisional lymph node biopsy at Sakarya University Medical Faculty Training and Research Hospital between January 2008 and January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were evaluated in terms of age, gender, biopsy site, pathological diagnosis, number and diameter of lymph nodes excised. Patients younger than 18 years of age, those with sentinel lymph node biopsies, and lymph node dissections performed for any known malignancy were excluded from the study. Statistical data analysis was done using SPSS statistical software. There were 37 (50.7%) female and 36 (49.3%) male patients, mean age 52.07 (18-90) years. Axillary lymph node biopsy was performed in 32 patients, inguinal lymph node biopsy in 29 patients, cervical lymph node biopsy in 3 patients, intra-abdominal lymph node biopsy in 6 patients, mediastinal lymph node biopsy in 1 patient, and supraclavicular lymph node biopsy in 2 patients. All of the lymph node biopsies were performed as excisional biopsy. Malignancy was detected in 36 (49.3%) patients. In 37 (50.3%) patients, the causes of lymphadenopathy were found to be benign pathologies. When the causes of malignant disease were examined, it was observed that 23 (31.5%) patients were diagnosed with lymphoma. Hodgkin lymphoma was detected in 5 patients diagnosed with lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma was found in 18 patients. Metastatic lymphadenopathy was observed in 13 (17.8%) patients. Reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (26%) and lymphadenitis (20.5%) were found among the causes of benign lymphadenopathy. The number of excised lymph nodes was between 1 and 4, and their diameter was between 9 and 75 mm (mean: 29.53±15.56 mm). There was no statistically significant difference between benign and malignant patients according to gender, age, lymph node diameter, number of lymph nodes excised, and excisional lymph node biopsy site. For diagnostic lymph node biopsy, fine-needle aspiration biopsy and core biopsy should be performed primarily. If lymphoma is suspected in the diagnosis, fine-needle aspiration biopsy is not necessary. In this case, it is believed that it is more appropriate to perform core biopsy first. If the core biopsy is insufficient for diagnosis, it is more appropriate to perform surgical biopsy in order to cause no delay in diagnosis and treatment. Excisional biopsy is a method that can be safely performed and does not cause severe morbidity in palpable peripheral lymphadenopathies. Although it does not cause severe morbidity because it is an invasive procedure, excisional biopsy should be performed in a selected patient group.

Abstract	Background Ambulatory anorectal surgeries have increased in the last few years. This clinical study aimed to compare general operating room conditions with outpatient procedures for simple anal fistulas in terms of healing success, recurrence, cost, complications, and sustainability. Methodology Only primary fistulotomy and seton application for simple anal fistulas were retrospectively analyzed. Results Two-hundred fifty patients (73.7%) were male, and 89 (26.3%) were female. Sixty patients (17.7%) were treated in the operating room, and 279 (82.3%) were treated in the outpatient clinic conditions. Of the ambulatory surgeries, 160 patients underwent fistulotomy and 119 patients loose seton. On the other hand, 34 patients underwent fistulotomy and 26 patients loose seton in operating room conditions. No significant difference was found between the groups according to the distribution of age, gender, complications, and recurrence (

Abstract	Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a vascular emergency resulting from decreased blood flow caused by the occlusion of the mesenteric vessels, hypoperfusion, or vasospasm. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the fibrinogen-to-albumin (FAR) ratio in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia. A total of 91 patients were enrolled in the study. Patients' demographics such as age and gender, pre- and postoperative hemoglobin, CRP, white blood cell (WBC), neutrophils, preoperative lymphocyte, alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), thrombocytes, and postoperative D-dimer values were recorded. In addition, pre- and postoperative fibrinogen and albumin levels were recorded, and FAR was calculated. Patients were divided into two groups, survivors and non-survivors. The mean pre- and postoperative fibrinogen levels were statistically significantly higher in the non-survivor group than in the survivor group (

Abstract	Background: One of the most common peptic ulcer complications is perforation (PUP) which also remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality. In this study, it was aimed to compare the results of patients who had similar pre-operative scoring index results (Boey, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and Mannheim Peritonitis Index (MPI), and type of surgery. Methods: Pre-operative Boey, CCI, and MPI scores were calculated by retrospectively examining the files of patients who were operated under emergency conditions with the diagnosis of PUP. The patients divided into two groups those who underwent laparoscopic surgery/Group-1 and open surgery/Group-2. Results: There was no statistical difference between the groups in terms of demographic data, hospital admission time, and length of hospital stay. The operation time was found to be longer in the laparoscopic group (110,2 SD20,6/75-150 min) than open group (54,2 SD15,7/30-120 min) (p<0.001). Morbidity was less in laparoscopic group (4% versus 14.6%) (p<0.001). Conclusion: The laparoscopic method may be used safely in PUP due to the lower post-operative complication rates and known advantages of minimally invasive surgery.

Abstract	Although acute appendicitis remains the most common cause of acute abdomen in General Surgery practice, negative appendectomy rates are still high in particularly female patients. Appendicitis scoring systems considering gender can help the clinician to reduce negative appendectomy rates in females. This present study aims to compare the Lintula, Ripasa, Fenyo-Lindberg scoring systems, which use gender as a variable, with the Alvarado, Karaman, scoring systems to evaluate which CSS is more successful in the differential diagnosis of appendicitis in females. We analyzed the records of the patients operated on with a prediagnosis of acute appendicitis in our clinic between 2020 and 2021, retrospectively. Alvarado, adult appendicitis score (AAS), appendicitis inflammatory response score (AIRS), Ripasa, Karaman, Lintula, and Fenyo Lindberg scores were calculated for each patient. The patients were divided into two groups as male and female, according to gender. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to identify the best cut-off value and assess the performance of the test score for appendicitis. Three hundred and sixty-three patients were included in the study. One hundred seventy-two (47.4%) of the patients were male, and 191 (52.6%) were female. Alvarado and AAS were the most valuable score in female (AUC: 0.805, sensitivity: 0.63, specificity: 0.83; and area under curve (AUC): 0.794, Sensitivity 0.71, Specificity: 0.76, respectively), male group (AUC: 0.828, Sensitivity: 0.71, Specificity: 0.83; and AUC: 0.834, Sensitivity 0.74, Specificity: 0.77, respectively), and when patients were not categorized by gender (AUC: 0.818, Sensitivity: 0.67 Specificity: 0.83; and AUC: 0.794, Sensitivity 0.71, Specificity: 0.76, respectively). Although the Alvarado scoring system is the first defined appendicitis scoring system, it seems as superior to the many scoring systems defined after it in predicting appendicitis, even in female patients.

Abstract	Introduction: While elective surgeries have been postponed worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic, emergency operations cannot be delayed and are continuously being performed just like before the pandemic outbreak [1]. Aim: Although elective surgeries have been postponed worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic, emergency operations cannot be delayed and are continuously being performed. In general surgery practice, incarcerated / strangulated inguinal hernias take a prominent place among emergency surgeries. In 1% of these patients, the hernia contents retreat spontaneously into the abdomen until the hernia sac is opened. It is strongly recommended that these bowel segments be evaluated for possible intestinal necrosis. Results: Patients who underwent emergency surgery and hernioscopy in the Sakarya Training and Research Hospital General Surgery Service due to incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia between March 2020 and October 2020 were included in the study. Hernioscopy procedure was performed using the single-port and glove-port methods. For each patient, the following variables were recorded: age, duration of complaints, comorbidities, hernia repair method, operation time, incarcerated organ, postoperative complications and whether ischemia improved after reduction or resection was required. Conclusion: Hernioscopy is a procedure performed under spinal anesthesia which prevents unnecessary laparotomies and should be considered as first-line treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic in patients who undergo emergency surgery for strangulated inguinal hernia.

Abstract	Objective: To compare the outcomes between two methods of dissection (balloon trocar vs. telescopic dissection) used in total extra-peritoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair. Study design: Comparative study. Place and duration of study: Department of General Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Sakarya University, conducted between January 2018 and January 2020. Methodology: The study included patients who underwent elective TEP inguinal hernia repair. Preoperative and early postoperative results were compared, after the patients had been divided into a balloon trocar group (Group 1) and telescopic dissection group (Group 2). The technique performed depended on equipment availability. Permission was obtained from the Institutional Review Board. The study data are presented as descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, median, first quartile, third quartile, frequency and percentage); p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: A total of 189 patients were included; 95 patients in Group 1 and 94 patients in Group 2. No significant differences in age, gender, body mass index, body weight, ASA performance status, operating time, duration of hospitalisation or postoperative bleeding values were observed between the groups (p >0.05). European Hernia Society Quality of Life pain score values were higher in Group 2 than Group 1 (p = 0.016). Conclusion: Telescopic dissection was cheaper than balloon dissection. The bleeding values and operating time were similar between the two methods, but telescopic dissection caused more postoperative pain. Key Words: Inguinal hernia, Telescopic dissection, Balloon dissection, Total extra-peritoneal (TEP) surgery.

Abstract	Background: Many scoring systems have been developed for acute appendicitis, which is the most common emergent disorder in surgical practice. Considering the physiological changes and chronic diseases occurring with advancing age, an applied scoring system may not produce the same score in similar patients in all age groups. Objectives: We aimed to compare the predictive values of scoring systems in different age groups. Methods: In this prospective study, the patients operated on in our clinic with a prediagnosis of acute appendicitis between March 2020 and March 2021 were included. We divided them into three age groups as 18-45 years (group 1), 46-65 years (group 2), and >65 years (group 3). We compared the scores of the nine acute appendicitis scoring systems most commonly used in the literature for these age groups. Results: A total of 203 patients were included in our study. The Alvarado scoring system yielded the most accurate results for group 1, whereas the Fenyo-Linberg scoring system was the most accurate system for group 2 and the Eskelinen scoring system for group 3. Conclusion: Age should be considered as a major parameter during the selection of the scoring system to be applied for patients with prediagnosis of acute appendicitis. Our study revealed the Alvarado and the Fenyo-Lindberg scoring systems as the most accurate systems for the differential diagnosis of appendicitis in the 18-45 and 46-65 years age groups, respectively. Although we found the Eskelinen scoring system as the most accurate one in the >65 years age group, the confidence intervals indicated that it may not be appropriate for use alone in this group.

Abstract	Objective: Cecal diverticulitis may be encountered as a real etiological factor in 1/300 appendectomies. Differential diagnosis of acute appendicitis and cecal diverticulitis is crucial because of the different treatment methods. Our aim is to reveal the importance of distinguishing acute appendicitis from cecal diverticulitis. Methods: The data of patients who were admitted to the hospital between 2015 and 2019 with the complaint of abdominal pain and then finally diagnosed with colon diverticular disease, colon diverticulitis, or acute appendicitis, analyzed retrospectively. Results: A total of 19 cecum diverticulitis patients were detected during surgery for acute appendicitis or during clinical and radiological evaluation. 1247 appendectomies were evaluated; the final diagnosis was observed as cecal diverticulitis in 5 patients (0,4%). One hundred nineteen patients diagnosed with colonic diverticulitis at admission were evaluated, while 105 (88,2%) of them had left-sided diverticulitis, 14 (11,7%) of them had solitary cecal diverticulitis. All of the solitary cecal diverticulitis patients were treated conservatively, except one patient who has Hinchey 3 diverticulitis. Conclusion: Differential diagnosis of cecum diverticulitis with acute appendicitis is important because cecum diverticulitis can be managed as conservatively in most cases. In order to prevent unnecessary surgical interventions, this importance has increased, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
