There was a direct relationship among the clinical presumption, the laboratory findings and anatomopathologic results in 92, 59% of the cases.Conclusions: ?- There exists a direct relationship among the clinical presumption, the laboratory findings and anatomopathologic results, demonstrated through the Kappa index. ?- Although the analitos possesses a grade of own specificity, they acquire special importance when they accompany of clinical manifestations that can guide toward the presumptive diagnosis of the AA. ?- It is deduced, from the epidemiologic analysis, that AA constitutes a pathology of medium incidence with high socio-economic repercussion when there is late diagnosis. Objetivo General: comparar la relación existente entre el diagnóstico clínico, los hallazgos de laboratorio y el resultado anatomopatológico en la Apendicitis Aguda (AA). Determinar la incidencia local y la repercusión económico-social entre el diagnóstico precoz y tardío de esta patología.Métodos: estudio retrospectivo de los casos operados en nuestro Hospital durante el año 2006 con diagnóstico clínico y de laboratorio de AA.Resultados: se intervinieron 54 casos. En el 92,59% de ellos se encontró relación directa entre la presunción clínica, los hallazgos del laboratorio y anatomopatológicos.Conclusiones: ?- Existe una relación directa entre la presunción clínica, los hallazgos de laboratorio y anatomopatológicos, demostrada a través del índice Kappa.- Si bien los analitos poseen un grado de especificidad propia, adquieren especial importancia cuando se acompañan de manifestaciones clínicas que puedan orientar hacia el diagnóstico presuntivo de la AA.- Del análisis epidemiológico se deduce que la AA constituye una patología de mediana incidencia, con alta repercusión económico social cuando el diagnóstico es tardío.
