Abstract: Appendicitis is an inflammation of vermiform appendix. Acute inflammation of the appendix needs to be treated immediately to prevent fatal complications. The incidence among females and males is slightly comparable, however, the incidence is higher among males than females in the age range between 20-30 years. The fundamental clinical decision in the diagnosis of a patient with suspected appendicitis is whether to do an operation or not. The meaningful evaluation of acute appendicitis balances early operative intervention to prevent operative risks. This study aimed to obtain the incidence of appendicitis at Prof. Dr. R.D Kandou Hosiptal Manado from October 2012 to September 2015. This was a retrospective descriptive study using data of the Department of Medical Record Prof. Dr. R.D Kandou Manado Hospital. The results showed that there were 650 patients. Most patients had acute appendicitis as many as 412 patients (63%) meanwhile chronic appendicitis was found in 38 patients (6%). Of 650 patients, 200 patients had complications; 193 patients (30%) with perforated appendicitis and 7 patients (1%) with appendicular mass. The most frequent age group to develop appendicitis was 20-29 years. The number of male patients was higher than the females.

Abstrak: Apendisitis adalah adanya peradangan pada apendiks vermiformis. Peradangan akut pada apendiks memerlukan tindak bedah segera untuk mencegah komplikasi yang umumnya berbahaya. Insidens pada perempuan dan laki-laki umumnya sebanding, kecuali pada umur 20-30 tahun insidens pada laki-laki lebih tinggi. Keputusan klinis mendasar dalam mendiagnosis pasien dengan dugaan apendisitis ialah apakah perlu dilakukannya operasi atau tidak. Evaluasi yang baik dari kasus apendisitis akut dapat mengurangi intervensi untuk operasi awal, dengan harapan dapat mengurangi risiko operasi yang tidak diperlukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui angka kejadian apendisitis di RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D, Kandou Manado periode Oktober 2012 – September 2015. Metode penelitian yang digunakan ialah deskriptif retrospektif dengan menggunakan data di Bagian Rekam Medik RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa selama periode Oktober 2012 – September 2015 terdapat 650 pasien. Jumlah pasien terbanyak ialah apendisitis akut yaitu 412 pasien (63%) sedangkan apendisitis kronik sebanyak 38 pasien (6%).
