  • Title: [Surgical management of acute abdominal pain in children].
    Author: Scheye T.
    Journal: J Chir (Paris); 1999; 136(5):252-6. PubMed ID: 10642638.
    Abstract:
    Acute abdominal pain is one of the most frequent causes of admission to an emergency department of a children's hospital. It continues to be a clinical challenge and the diagnosis viewed with the most apprehension is acute appendicitis. The clinical examination must be meticulous and repeated in order to assess the evolution of the abdominal syndrome and to adapt the paraclinic examinations. All the abdominal pains are not surgical but justify an admission for observation in pediatric surgical department.
