[Differential diagnosis of acute appendicitis].
Among 5.100 patients operated upon with a preoperative diagnosis of "acute appendicitis" the diagnosis proved to be erroneous in 85. Thirty seven of them need no operative intervention, in 48 patients an urgent operation was obsolutely necessary but for other acute diseases of the abdominal organs. Frequently, the cause of errors was non-atypical clinical course of the disease. A great number of cases of wrong diagnosis were due to inadequately collected anamnesis, incomplete clinical investigation of a patient.
