Abstract
The skin temperature in the right and left iliac fossae was recorded in 100 patients who were referred with a provisional diagnosis of acute appendicitis. This was not found to be a reliable aid in diagnosis of acute appendicitis nor an indicator to the need for surgery in patients with right iliac fossa pain.Entities:
