In the present research work, 348 patients were studied, with a diagnosis of acute appendicitis in the Sullana´s Hospital - January - December 2017. The main objective of this study was to determine the epidemiology and the relationship between the Alvarado scale and the intraoperative diagnosis of acute appendicitis in postappendectomized patients January - December 2017. The method used was the cross-sectional retrospective descriptive method, with the study population being patients between 15 and 80 years of age admitted with clinical symptoms of acute appendicitis. The technique of data collection was the review of clinical histories and operative reports. In the present study it was observed that of 348 patients attended with clinical signs of acute appendicitis, the most frequent ages were between 15 and 24 years old (39.4%), without differences in prevalence according to sex, the abdominal pain in the right iliac fossa was the most frequent symptom (100%); followed by hyporexia (94.3%), Mc Burney's sign was present in 98.6% of patients. The majority of patients presented with a disease time greater than 48 hours (72.1%), and the type of appendicitis that predominated was uncomplicated in 196 patients (56.3%). It was found that the Alvarado Scale> 7 points is related to the diagnosis of acute appendicitis, finding this relationship in 124 patients (81.6%), which predominated in ages of 15 to 34 years (52.6%) and in patients who attended with more than 48 hours of sick time (51.1%).
