Abstract
The management of appendicular phlegmon has undergone a paradigm shift in its management from conservative treatment towards immediate appendectomy, with the introduction of laparoscopic appendectomy. The need for an interval appendectomy has also been reduced with this change but the role of extended resection is still debated with there being no consensus of whether to perform a right hemicolectomy or ileocecal resection. We have conducted this review article to investigate the management of appendicular phlegmon especially the role of laparoscopic appendectomy and extended resection.
