Appendicitis developed in three patients during the postoperative period. At reoperation, perforation of the appendix occurred in all three instances and abscess was present in two. The postoperative status caused confusion in the diagnosis and led to inappropriate delay in operation. Failure to recognize appendicitis in the postoperative period suggests that a higher than normal incidence of rupture can be expected in this patient group.
三名患者在术后发生了阑尾炎。再次手术时，三例均出现阑尾穿孔，两例伴有脓肿。术后情况导致诊断困难，并导致手术不适当延迟。未能在术后识别出阑尾炎表明，该患者群体中阑尾破裂的发生率可能高于正常水平。
