Acute appendicitis

The publication provides the latest scientific information on the diagnosis and preoperative management of acute appendicitis. The lead author of the publication is also the author of a new palpation sign accepted by the American and British Society of Clinical Anatomists. The symptom itself is described in the publication. Compared with other publications describing sudden abdominal events, it is specified only for acute appendicitis, which allows a more detailed description of the disease itself. That makes this book unique.

The publication is defined as a professional, undergraduate textbook intended for medical students and for postgraduate training of surgeons, general practitioners and paediatricians. It is also suitable for the training of paramedical staff.
