It is well known that certain diseases and patient conditions are associated with increased perioperative risk. The aim of this book is to define and identify the clinical factors that warrant a broader and more detailed assessment of pre-operative surgical risk in difficult and unusual clinical settings.

Acute appendicitis is a common pediatric abdominal emergency, although it can occur in any age group. The debated role of imaging in diagnosis and diagnostic delays make diagnosis particularly challenging in the elderly. Given the heterogeneity of the population that may be affected by this disease, it is not possible to stipulate a universally valid diagnostic process. As such, an individualized approach guided by age, sex, comorbidities, and clinical manifestations is always necessary. This book reviews the current state of the art in acute appendicitis to help surgeons administer proper and timely treatment.
La quinta edizione di questo volume, pur mantenendo invariata l’impostazione basata sulla fisiopatologia e sulla netta suddivisione tra chirurgia generale e specialistica, è stata completamente rinnovata nella grafica e nei contenuti. Un approfondito lavoro di revisione e integrazione ha interessato tutte le sezioni, con particolare attenzione alle nuove procedure chirurgiche e alle moderne applicazioni tecnologiche nella diagnostica e nella terapia chirurgica. Gli ordinamenti didattici del corso di laurea in Medicina e Chirurgia confermano la scelta editoriale di quest’opera, che consente allo studente di trovare nei due volumi tutte le discipline chirurgiche e, soprattutto, permette rapide consultazioni per uno studio integrato e per un’accurata diagnosi differenziale con patologie di altri sistemi e apparati.
