Abstract

Introduction: Abdominal pain is one of the most common reasons for an emergency department (ED) visit, accounting to about 5% to 10% of all ED visits. Aims and Objectives: To Study Correlation between Preoperative Provisional Diagnosis and Intra Operative Findings in the Patients with Non Traumatic Acute Abdominal Pain.

There were 100 patients were included into the study. 62 pt managed operatively and 38 patients managed conservatively. Result: The majority of the Patients were from the age group of 30-40 i.e. 33%. The majority of the patients were Males i.e. 56% and Females were 44% As per Preoperative Provisional Diagnosis the most common diagnosis found was Acute appendicitis in 44% followed by; Urolithiasis in 14%, Gastritis in 13%, Hollow viscus perforation in 12%, Intestinal obstruction in 06%, Acute cholecystitis in 6%, Acute Pancreatitis in 5%.

For preoperative diagnosis in 12 patients as Hollow viscus perforation incidence of Duodenal perforation 58.4% followed by Gastric perforation in 33.3%, Ileal perforation in 8.3% . For total 6 patients as preoperative provisional diagnosis as intestinal obstruction the intraop finding were Postoperative adhesive band 50.1%, Sigmoid volvulus 16.7%, Superior mesenteric artery thrombus 16.7%, Obstructed hernia 16.7.The compatibility of intraoperative findings was highest with USG Diagnosis i.e. 89.00% followed by CT-Scan was 81% and of the Clinical diagnosis was 59%. Conclusion: As per Preoperative Provisional Diagnosis the most common diagnosis found was Acute appendicitis in followed by Urolithiasis, Gastritis, Hollow viscus perforation, Intestinal obstruction, Acute cholecystitis, Acute Pancreatitis etc . The compatibility of intraoperative findings was highest with USG Diagnosis i.e. 89.00% followed by CT-Scan was 81% and of the Clinical diagnosis was 59%.
