ABSTRACT
A relatively frequent and alarming complication of appendicitis in children is ileus. The authors submit an analysis of 41 cases of ileus with a time interval of 3 days to 8 years after appendectomy. In eight patients conservative treatment was successful, and 33 children were operated with the finding of intraabdominal adhesions (23 times), bands (3 times), abscesses and adhesions (7 times). Two children were re-operated on account a relapsing ileus. None of the children died. Prophylaxis of ileus after appendectomy is ineffective and uncertain, therefore the authors emphasize early diagnosis and early operation of the appendicitis but warn against inadequately considered appendectomy.
