Overview
Acute appendicitis and acute cholecystitis are among the most common diagnoses that general surgeons operate. However, they are only rarely described simultaneously. Authors describe the course of disease, diagnostics and surgery solution of disease. They report, that there are many factors, which play important role in the process of diagnostics and treatment of patient. They emphasis individual access not only of patient’s view, but also individual acces and view of surgeon. Because of rare coincidence of both diseases, there are many questions, but answers miss.
Key words:
acute cholecystitis − acute appendicitis − coincidence
