Dr Shinde Viraj Chandrashekhar, Dr Shinde Jeevan Vitthal
Abstract :
Recurrent appendicitis is defined when patients with recurring similar right iliac fossa pain had acute
appendicitis confirmed at the time of operation and the pain completely subsided after surgery. We
conducted a retrospective study on our patients with appendicitis. There were 310 patients with appendicitis over a
two–year period and 34 patients (11%) had reported recurring pain prior to the presentation. Majority had one prior
episode but 15% had multiple episodes of right iliac fossa pain. Fifty–eight percent of the episode occur within six
months of the presentation. We conclude that recurrent appendicitis should be considered as a differential diagnosis in
patients with recurrent right iliac fossa pain.
