Resume
The authors conducted a retrospective clinical analysis of the results of treatment of acute appendicitis in children during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main result of the study was a comparison of the frequency of complications of acute appendicitis before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 347 patients with suspected acute appendicitis were examined, 160 (46,1%) of them in the period before COVID–19 and 187(53,9%) during the pandemic. Patients infected with COVID-19 had complaints from the gastrointestinal tract against the background of respiratory symptoms, which made it difficult to diagnose the pathology in a timely manner. The similarity of the clinical picture of acute appendicitis and acute infectious disease (COVID-19) requires the inclusion of virological and instrumental examination methods in the management plan for children with abdominal pain. A higher incidence of perforated appendicitis during the pandemic was found (33%) compared to the period before the pandemic (22.4%), which indicates a higher incidence of complicated appendicitis in children during before the pandemic and the strict regime of the COVID-19.
Key words: acute appendicitis, COVID-19, diagnosis, complications of treatment.
