Abstract

This investigation was commenced by one of us (J. A. I.) in 1910 and carried on for three and a half years. Our purpose was to determine as accurately as possible the percentage of appendices operated on for appendicitis which contained intestinal parasites. The results of a study of 100 unselected cases are given below.
