ABSTRACT
A historical review about acute appendicitis was carried out, for which the historical aspects known to a greater or lesser degree were studied in depth. This article covers from the Byzantine era to the present day. The objective is to update the results found from the historical and physiopathological viewpoints. For this study, a search was made through the databases Scielo, Medline and PubMed and complemented by the search engines Google, Yahoo and Wikipedia. A critical analysis of the findings was made and other articles from various countries and institutions, written in other languages, by several author(s) and on different dates were also studied; preferably the nationals. The four theories related to the origin of this disease were exposed: obstruction of light, superficial mucosal ulcerations, hygiene and the role of infection, and finally, the hypothesis of dietary fibers. We identified historical aspects in acute appendicitis over time, as well as referred to a recent report on gastrointestinal traits in the different species and the four physiopathological theories, all of which were attractive.
