SAYS APPENDICITIS
IS RARELY CHRONIC
Pennsylvania Doctor Blasts
Former Theories in Report
to Medical Men.
BY the Associated Press.


MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June l6.-
Chronic appendicitis, recognized by the
medical profession for decades, yester-
day was blasted out of existence by DR..
Russell S. BoleS, associate professor of
medicine at the University Of Pennsyl-
vania, in discussion before "a scien-
tific section of the American Medical
Association, which concluded It's an
nual convention here.
Dr. Boles declared that operations
for chronic appendicitis are of no avail,
citing data collected from examina-
tions OF thousands of patients He
emphasized the certainty of acute ap-
pendicitis. however, declaring that a
surgical operation is the only means Of
cure.
His address was the result of inves-
legations made by himself and Or. John
S. Carnett, also of the University Of
Pennsylvania, as well as information
gathered from physicians over the coun-
try.
Only Rare Cases.
I'VE are unable To find any combina-
ton Of symptoms to justify a clinical
diagnosis of chronic appendicitis that
would be cured by removal of the ap-
pendix." he said
I'VE are supported in this statement
by the history Of the patients studied,
the lack of value of x-ray diagnosis of
the conditions and other effects con-
corning the handling of the individual
case.
THE condition usually suspected as
being chronic appendicitis Is not that
at all, except In very few cases. when
there are adhesions causing obstruc-
tions. The X-ray is of great value In
determining this condition"
