title: [Acute diseases of the appendices epiploicae].
abstract: There were 5 patients with acute pathological conditions of the appendices epiploicae of the colon. Three of them had inflammation of the appendices one had necrosis due to strangulation of the appendix, and one patient had perforation of the colon in the region of the appendix. From their personal experience the authors conclude that all patients with acute diseases (inflammation, torsion, necrosis) of the appendices epiploicae should be treated by an emergency operation for removal of the appendices, closure of their beds with double-row interrupted sutures and plastics with a pedicled omentum graft.
