Özet

BACKGROUND: Between 18% and 34% of acute appendicitis (AA) patients may have complicated appendicitis. Perforation is the most important complication of AA. Perforation increases morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of basic inflammatory markers in the diagnosis of perforated AA.
