[Involvement of the appendix in the inflammatory process in severe nonspecific chronic ulcerative colitis in children].
The authors examined appendix tissues taken from 16 children and adolescents who had undergone colectomy for severe chronic ulcerative colitis.

The clinical symptomatology of appendicitis was absent.
