| Core Tip |
This study analyzed surgical outcomes of 1236 patients whose computed tomography (CT) scans were suggestive of nonperforated appendicitis, and showed in-hospital gross perforation rate was very low (7.3%) and it was predicted by several factors: body temperature ≥ 37.6??℃, out-of-hospital symptom duration ≥ 7 d, age ≥ 35 years, and appendiceal diameter on CT scan ≥ 8 mm. Therefore, determining operative priority based on risk factors of in-hospital perforation is expected to improve surgical outcomes by reducing perforation rates.
