Note: Were you looking for information about appendicitis? Apendicities is a common misspelling of appendicitis.
Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix that occurs most often in people between the ages of 10 and 30. Treatment for appendicitis involves surgery to remove the appendix. However, if appendicitis treatment is delayed, the appendix can burst, causing infection and even death.
