abstract: This is a commentary on two published articles in this issue of the Dutch Journal of Medicine (NTvG) about the diagnosis and work-up of patients with suspected acute appendicitis. Despite a well-established Dutch guideline since 2010 in some cases the diagnosis of acute appendicitis remains a challenge.
