Core Tip Diagnosing recurrent and chronic appendicitis poses significant clinical challenges. It requires a clear understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, precise case definitions, and detailed patient history and physical examination. Employing these approaches, supplemented by imaging studies, enhances diagnostic accuracy. Surgeons should avoid operating without a definitive diagnosis to prevent unnecessary interventions.
