Abstract:
Acute appendicitis is one of the most common acute abdominal diseases in pediatric surgery.Appendectomy is the standard of care for the treatment of acute appendicitis in children and its curative effect is definite.With the improvement of endoscopic techniques, laparoscopic appendectomy has become a mainstream operation in the recent years.However, individual therapy based on disease progression is attracting more and more attention, which has led to new questions.The management of these questions has not formed consensus at present, such as conclusion timing, operative methods, treatment of appendiceal abscess and effect of non-operative management.This review summarizes the treatment progress of acute appendicitis in children.
