| Popis: | A common and deadly cause of sudden abdominal discomfort is acute appendicitis. The surgeons frequently had trouble locating the vermiform appendix in its regular location. For an effective therapy, a thorough analysis of the vermiform appendix's various locations is required. The objective of this study is to investigate and compile extensive anatomical data on the location variation of the vermiform appendix in the cadavers of western Indians. The structure's morphometry was determined. The study of appendix was carried out on 25 cadavers available in the department of anatomy. Metrical parameters such as length, diameter and distance of appendicular orifice from ileum were measured. The different positions of appendix in and the variations of the mesoappendix were noted. Mean and standred deviations were calculated.: Length of appendix was 5.47± 1.59, diameter at base was 6.85±1.82, diameter at tip was 3.94± 1.11, distance of appendicular orifice below ileum was 1.14±0.85 and Distance of appendicular orifice below ileum inside was 2.19 ±0.78 The most common position of mesoappendix was mesoappendix reaches the tip 37 (74%) followed by mesoappendix does not reaching the tip was 13 (26%).The most common position was retrocaecal 20(40%) followed by pelvic 15 (30%) least common was midinguinal. From various positions of vermiform appendix we can understand the possible outcome of the appendicitis specifically location of site of pain. |
