The sonographic appearance of the appendix and the periappendiceal region may vary greatly in children with acute appendicitis, depending on the extent and degree of inflammation and the presence or absence of perforation. Recognition of the typical and atypical sonographic features of appendicitis can be important in its diagnosis. In this report, we illustrate the spectrum of sonographic findings in 250 children examined with the graded-compression technique because of suspected appendicitis. Sixty-three (25%) of these children were subsequently shown to have appendicitis.
在患有急性阑尾炎的儿童中，阑尾及阑尾周围区域的超声表现可能有很大差异，这取决于炎症的范围和程度以及是否存在穿孔。认识阑尾炎典型和非典型的超声特征对其诊断可能很重要。在本报告中，我们展示了250例因疑似阑尾炎而采用灰阶超声检查的儿童的超声检查结果范围。其中63例（25%）儿童随后被证实患有阑尾炎。
