Prevention of Complications in Laparoscopic Complicated Appendicitis Using Sodium Hypochlorite Solution
Complication rate >30%. Most frequent: SSI, intra-abdominal abscess, ileus. Evidence on lavage solutions remains inconclusive
Objective: Evaluate postoperative complications using isotonic sodium hypochlorite (100 mL).
Methods: Prospective observational study. Public second-level hospital. n = 30 patients. Follow-up: 3 months.
Results: 60% Male. Mean age: 32.3 years. Symptom duration: 2.64 days. Type 2 Diabetes: 13.3%. Length of stay: 1.3 days
NO surgical reintervention required.
Conclusion: Isotonic sodium hypochlorite demonstrated favorable outcomes, reducing infectious complications in complicated appendicitis
.Further larger controlled studies are required
