title: [Principles of diagnostics and treatment of chronic appendicitis].
abstract: Treatment results of 101 patients, operated on with the diagnosis of the chronic appendicitis, were analyzed. Of them, 55 had periodic right iliac pain syndrome, the rest 46 had a history of appendicular abscess or infiltrate. 58 patients were operated on laparoscopically, the rest had traditional open appendectomy. The use of ultrasound and roentgen diagnostics proved to be non-effective. The reliable laparoscopic symptoms of chronic appendicitis were singled out. The laparoscopy provided the correct diagnosis in 93.3% of patients and allowed avoiding the groundless appendectomy in 31.2%. The intraoperative ultrasound is helpful in questionable cases. The diagnostic and treatment algorithm for chronic appendicitis, based on laparoscopic methods, was worked out.
