On the issue of appendicitis

The need to study and discuss the issue of appendicitis is also dictated by the fact that appendectomies account for up to 85.3% of all operations performed for acute abdominal diseases, and by the fact that there has been a significant increase in emergency operations for acute appendicitis. According to our data, appendectomies account for 85.9% of operations in acute abdominal diseases. In order to analyse our work and improve the medical care of the population of our district, we have studied the case histories of patients referred to the hospital with the diagnosis of appendicitis.
