dc.description.abstractBacground: The diagnosis of acute appendicitis is based on medical history and physical examination. Serum (S) amiloid A (AA) levels are elevated in many inflammatory conditions. Omentin is a recently discovered adipokine showing decreased levels associated with inflammatory conditions. We aimed to measure SAA and omentin levels in patients with acute appendicitis. Materials and Methods: 36 patients with a diagnosis of acute appendicitis and 30 healthy subjects were enrolled to this research study. A statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics Version 16.0 (SPSS Inc.®, Chicago, IL, United States). Results: Patients in study group were significantly older than healthy control subjects (p=0.013). Body mass index of the patients with acute appendicitis (23.2±1.3) was greater than that of the control group (22.7±1), but the difference did not reach the statistically significance (p=0.076). ). Mean level of SAA was significantly raised in study group compared to healthy control subjects (p<0.001). Mean omentin level was significantly lower in study group compared to healthy subjects (p=0.013). Conclusions: In conclusion, although diagnosis of acute appendicitis is mostly based on clinical findings, omentin and especially SAA measurement in serum may help surgeons to avoid negative laparatomy.en_US
