Dear All

I've been trying unsuccessfully to track down the following stats for a meeting tomorrow. The closest I've got is hesonline http://www.hesonline.nhs.uk/Ease/servlet/ContentServer?siteID=1937&categoryID=202 , but I could do with further information. I've also used the health stats sites suggested by Southampton University Library's health stats page. Additionally I've performed a lit search, and looked at references from articles that looked promising, to no avail.

How many appendicectomies performed in the UK (or a region will do)? (under 18s)

Bonus question.......

How many diagnoses of appendicitis resulted in an appendicectomy, and / or in how many cases did the histology confirm the diagnosis?


Many thanks in anticipation


Kind Regards

Simon Alberici
