Surgery** is the only effective method, but the decision to undergo appendectomy should be done with particular caution. (1) After the diagnosis of chronic appendicitis, in principle, surgery should be performed to remove the pathological appendix, especially for patients with a history of acute attacks. For patients with suspicious diagnoses or elderly patients with serious comorbidities, temporary non-surgical** should be followed up in the outpatient setting.

2) If the appearance of the appendix is basically normal during the operation, and the abdomen cannot be easily removed only after the appendix, the tissues and organs near the appendix should be carefully examined, such as the ileocecal region, the terminal ileum of one meter, the mesentery and its lymph nodes. Female patients should also carefully explore the pelvis and appendages to prevent misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. (3) After surgery, each patient should be followed up for a period of time to understand the actual effect after the removal of the appendix.
