AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO APPENDICULAR INFILTRATE

Abstract

In modern abdominal surgery, acute appendicitis remains the most common urgent pathology. Timely diagnostics and adequate treatment tactics allow us to successfully resolve this problem. Against this background, the choice of treatment tactics for complicated forms of acute appendicitis remains a problematic issue. "The most controversial issue is the treatment of appendicular infiltrate (AI). The frequency of its development in acute appendicitis is 2-6%. In recent years, there has been a tendency to more frequent use of conservative treatment (antibiotics and drainage in case of abscess development) before subsequent delayed appendectomy.
