Abstract

症例は61歳男性.発熱と右下腹部痛を主訴に当院を受診.右下腹部に限局した圧痛,反跳痛を伴う腫瘤を触知し,血液検査では,炎症反応の上昇を認めた.CT検査で回盲部に限局した低吸収性の腫瘤を認め,虫垂の同定は困難であった.膿瘍形成性虫垂炎,限局性腹膜炎と診断し,保存的治療後切除の方針とした.入院後抗菌薬投与で,腹部症状,炎症所見の改善を認め,CTでも腫瘤の縮小を認め退院した.2カ月後のCTで回盲部の腫瘤は残存し,下部消化管内視鏡検査で虫垂開口部に隆起を認め,虫垂腫瘍を疑い手術した.腫瘤は回腸,盲腸に固着し,腹腔鏡下回盲部切除を施行.術後病理診断は虫垂粘液囊腫の穿孔で,粘液囊胞腺腫であった.虫垂粘液囊腫の穿孔は,膿瘍形成性虫垂炎との鑑別は困難であるが,保存的治療後も腫瘤が残存する場合は,積極的に切除すべきである.今回自験例も含め,腹腔鏡手術を施行した虫垂粘液囊腫の本邦報告例149例を検討した.
