Appendicovesical fistula in childhood: a rare complication of ruptured appendix.

The diagnosis of appendicovesical fistula is difficult and usually delayed. This is most unfortunate, since surgery is uniformly successful. The case we report reemphasizes the diagnostic value of the rectal examination, intravenous pyelogram, and foiding cystogram in a child with subacute or chronic abdominal pain. Only an awareness of this condition on the part of the attending physician will lead to prompt diagnosis and definitive therapy.
