To my father, an abdominal surgeon whose ability to make an

accurate diagnosis of emergency abdominal condition only with history taking and physical examination was never outperformed. He taught me great things in this “clinical magic.” To my wife Katarina, despite having two small children, understood the importance of this work to me and sacriced almost a decade of many weekends, evenings, nights, and journeys to allow me and provide me enough time to create both the rst and the second edition of this book. To my children (Lara and Lukas), who remind me every day that teaching others is a great opportunity and pleasure that cannot be substituted. To my mother, whose mathematically functioning brain is fascinating, and now I realize that it is a fortune that I inherited most parts of it. And… to all pregnant women… who are healthy… and to all who need the clinicians’ consultations from this book, whose lives and lives of their future babies will be saved and normal….

Diagnosis and treatment of abdominal surgical emergencies during preg­nancy are challenging. Abdominal examination is difcult, and organs may be pushed by the uterus in relation to gestation age, obscuring abdominal pathologies. Physiological parameters are altered due to pregnancy-induced changes, and laboratory tests could be deranged due to pregnancy-induced variations. In evaluating abdominal emergencies in gravid women, the physi­cian is advised to use computed tomography for diagnosis. Radiation expo­sure may affect the fetus’s normal development. Indeed a perplexing clinical setup.
Delay in the diagnosis of surgical emergencies is associated with the amplied risk to the mother and the fetus. The need for nonobstetrical surgery during pregnancy is low. However, nonobstetric surgery is fraught with increased risk to the fetus. Fortunately, in most cases, the gravid woman is a young and healthy individual, and the surgical emergencies are conned to young patients. The gestational risk in pregnant women with an acute abdo­men is multifactorial. Some relate to the patient and her well-being, and some relate to the fetal age of gestation at the time of diagnosis. Peritonitis and sepsis contribute to the risks, and the surgical approach (laparoscopic vs. open) has a great deal of impact.
Dr. Goran Augustin has assembled data on surgical emergencies in preg­nant women and wisely outlined recommendations for the practicing surgeon faced with a gravid patient endangered with an abdominal surgical emergency.
Any surgery during pregnancy confers signicant obstetrical risk. Delaying investigation and diagnosis may render the patient and her fetus to worse

outcomes. Surgeons should be aware of pregnancy physiology and the pre­cise algorithm for diagnosis and management during gestation. This book offers exactly that.

Foreword II to the Second Edition

I have been invested with the honor (and responsibility) of writing a “FORE” “WORD” meaning to write thoughtful comments made about a book, to give the impression as to what this book is all about. Acute abdomen during preg­nancy is a dramatic event, with signicant morbidity and mortality for both mother and fetus. Despite this, acute abdomen during pregnancy does remain a neglected and not well-known topic.
Clearly, a pregnant patient presenting with an acute abdomen is a clinical scenario that overlaps specialties. Common sense suggests the early involve­ment of specialists such as a surgeon, obstetrician/gynecologist, and a spe­cialist in maternal-fetal medicine when dealing with this challenging situation.
Unfortunately, the diagnosis and treatment often tend to be delayed due to the peculiar physiological features of pregnancy and the restrictions imposed on diagnostic imaging techniques such as X-ray and CT due to the fear of radiation exposure. MRI is gaining an increasingly relevant role in the diag­nostic workup but is not always and everywhere available or easily and read­ily accessible. Nevertheless, acute abdomen needs to be diagnosed in the shortest time possible and promptly treated. Physicians should pay attention in this regard as any delay may seriously deteriorate the condition of both mother and fetus.
The editor, Dr. Goran Augustin, is an internationally recognized expert in the eld of the acute abdomen during pregnancy and given his research and clinical activity over the last decade, I can wholeheartedly state that he is now considered an internationally recognized expert in the management of acute appendicitis and other acute surgical diseases in pregnant patients. His dedi­cation to this critical subset of patients has to be commended, and Dr. Augustin has made this delicate issue become his area of clinical practice and his eld of scientic research throughout the years. Textbooks and surgical journals appear to be the written resource of the fundamentals and the research reporting archives of the knowledge and the craft of this surgical discipline. This textbook is one of those resources and represents a landmark textbook in the eld of the care of a pregnant patient. Both the trainee and the practitioner of acute care surgery but also gynecology and obstetrics as well as emergency physicians and family doctors will nd this textbook useful and a ready resource for current approaches to surgical emergencies.

This will soon be a standard text used by surgeons who practice Acute Care Surgery worldwide and any physician dealing with critical surgical care during pregnancy. It has been a privilege to review it.

Preface to the Third Edition
https://t.me/medicina_free
Only those who know the past & present of science and art will boost their progress with awareness. (Christian Albert Theodor Billroth)
Times are bad. Children no longer obey their parents, and everyone is writing a book. (Marcus Tullius Cicero)
As Theodor Billroth said, I know the past and present of this book. That is how I know it should be improved in every way. And that is the future of this book. To be better. To give a reader new insights into every detail of the acute abdomen during pregnancy. That is why the third edition is in front of us. The knowledge about these rare entities expands with every new case treated and every new article or case report on the subject published. As always, new knowledge opens new questions and new dilemmas. During writing this third edition again, I recall Marvin Corman’s Preface to the sixth edition of Colon and Rectal Surgery (see Preface for the second edition). Probably I will recall him with every new edition.
This new edition has been almost completely rewritten. For example, completely new chapters include Bariatric Surgery, Fetal Trauma, Vernix Caseosa Peritonitis, and Radiology. Interestingly, I could not nd these chap­ters in any book. Dealing with pregnant patients after bariatric surgery is extremely important due to the increasing frequency of these procedures in the general population. The important nding is that plain abdominal X-ray is frequently normal, delaying accurate diagnosis and surgical treatment. All this can have deleterious consequences on the mother and fetus. The chapter dealing with intrauterine fetal trauma is also important. It adds the knowledge on intrauterine injuries with their inuence on the timing and type of delivery. The chapter on vernix caseosa peritonitis is very interesting because surgeons never consider this condition a cause of postdelivery complications. Accurate diagnosis can sometimes avoid unnecessary operations or organ resections due to the suspicion of a cause of peritonitis or even an underlying tumor. The chapter Urologic emergencies from the previous edition was divided into three chapters which are expanded and updated: Complicated Urinary Tract Infections, Urinary Tract Obstruction, and Urinary Tract Bleeding. The text is signicantly expanded and reorganized. It is published in two volumes for easier handling and reading. Many procedures are written in more detail with additional photographs to help in their comprehension.
It is difcult to construct data-based guidelines on these rare occurrences. Even a rarer occurrence is the detection of intrauterine fetal injuries. Should
