To the Editor I read with interest the study¹ analyzing the effect of in-hospital duration of time to appendectomy on risk for developing appendiceal perforation in children who present with uncomplicated appendicitis. The authors report that relatively shorter in-hospital delay (<24 hours) was not associated with a significantly increased risk for developing perforation.

儿童阑尾切除术的时间以及患复杂性阑尾炎和不良后果的风险

致编辑，我感兴趣地阅读了研究^1，分析了患有单纯性阑尾炎的儿童在阑尾切除术期间住院时间对阑尾穿孔发生风险的影响。作者报告说，相对较短的院内延迟（<24小时）与发生穿孔的风险显着增加无关。
