The typical presentation of acute appendicitis is well known. A few patients, however, have had an atypical clinical course suggestive of recurrent appendiceal inflammation, which has been confirmed by appendectomy. Therefore, in the evaluation of a patient with abdominal pain, a history of similar episodes should not preclude a diagnosis of appendicitis.
急性阑尾炎的典型表现广为人知。然而,有少数患者出现了非典型的临床病程,提示阑尾反复发炎,这已通过阑尾切除术得到证实。因此,在评估腹痛患者时,类似发作的病史不应排除阑尾炎的诊断。
