Abstract

This comprehensive study investigates the impact of acute appendicitis and its complications on liver function. While appendicitis is traditionally regarded as a localized inflammatory process, emerging evidence suggests potential systemic effects, including hepatic involvement. Through a thorough analysis of clinical data and laboratory parameters, this study elucidates the extent of hepatic dysfunction associated with acute appendicitis, such as alterations in liver enzymes, bilirubin levels, and hepatic inflammatory markers. Furthermore, the study explores the influence of appendiceal perforation, abscess formation, and other complications on liver function, highlighting the potential for hepatobiliary complications in severe cases. Insights from this study contribute to a deeper understanding of the systemic consequences of appendicitis and may inform clinical management strategies to optimize patient outcomes.
