    Abstract:
    There were 849 children with various forms of acute appendicitis under observation in 1988. Generalized and circumscribed peritonitis was found in 44.2% of cases. The new clinical approach-based introduction of a previously elaborated surgical tactics showed it to be rational. The changing conditions led to a wider use of diagnostic laparoscopy, rejection of the "lavage" system in the postoperative period, and introduction of the method of laparostomy which is simpler and more effective.
