Surgery for acute appendicitis can be performed regardless of age, as long as the indications for surgery are met. Once the diagnosis of acute appendicitis is confirmed and the patient has the indication for surgery, it is recommended that the patient undergoes surgery. Because of the acute appendicitis onset, the rapid onset of conventional conservative treatment can not be quickly to the inflammatory state of relief, often due to perforation of the appendix, the appendix pus into the abdominal cavity caused by diffuse peritonitis and so on. If the conservative treatment fails, the patient has to bear greater risks and may even have a life-threatening condition. Therefore, it is recommended that patients, regardless of age, undergo surgery as long as there are indications for surgery. Nowadays, appendicitis surgery is mainly laparoscopic surgery, which is safer and more efficient than traditional open surgery with smaller wounds. Patients and their families are advised to choose the best treatment for acute appendicitis under professional consultation with a doctor without delay, which may result in a life-threatening condition.
