The author analysed a homogeneous prospective series of 200 appendectomies. He studied the reliability of various elements in the diagnosis of appendicitis, including a new physical sign: borborygmi in the cecal region, an objective element on clinical examination which was present in 65% of cases. Its association with pain on rectal examination allowed a diagnostic certainty of 98% to be obtained.
