ABSTRACT

Acute appendicitis is a diagnostic challenge in urgent care departments and it is necessary to carry out an adequate and precise evaluation in order to reduce its morbidity and mortality. Because of the large number of diseases that can simulate appendicitis, the assessment of patients with a suspected acute appendicitis must be organized, directed and thorough. There is no clinical presentation that is generalized or typical for all patients, which is why in order to achieve an adequate approach, diagnosis and management of patients who arrive at urgent care with abdominal pain and suspected acute appendicitis, it is essential to take into account its main anatomical, physiological and clinical characteristics.
