    Abstract:
    According to the data of the surgical unit of the Central Clinical Hospital, Ministry of Social Security, MPR during 1977-1983 294 patients had complications (26%) out of 1112 patients with acute appendicitis and appendectomy who were treated in this unit. The common complications are localized, while general and uncommon peritonitis had a diffuse form. An average hospitalization of patients with acute appendicitis complications makes up 18.6 beds per day, patients without acute appendicitis complications--9.8 beds per day. Complicated forms of acute appendicitis are the basic cause of an increased duration of hospitalization of patients and longer duration of timely disablement.
