Abstract:
Acute appendicitis (AA) is among the most common causes of lower abdominal pain. There are lots of controversies regarding the various positions of appendix and also clinical presentation of appendicitis, in relation to different positions. In order to improve the diagnostic accuracy different aids were introduced like computer aided programs, different scoring systems, GIT contrast studies, CT scan, Ultrasonography, MRI and laparoscopy. Here we present a comparative study of intra operative and ultrasound findings of the position of appendix in acute appendicitis in our medical college at the outskirt of Udaipur city in the state of Rajasthan, India during the two year study period from January 2021 to January 2023, a total of 95 cases were included with history of pain in lower abdomen with radiological findings of appendicitis. From this study, it is concluded that Retrocaecal position of appendix was found in majority of cases on USG, clinical examination and intraoperatively. There was no significant difference between USG findings and intraoperative findings of positions of the appendix.
