The thermal streams intensity (THSI) from definite points of anterior abdominal wall in children with an acute mesenterial lymphadenitis (AML) and an acute appendicitis (AA) were determined. It was established, that in right inguinal region THSI in AA was in 4.06 times higher than in AML, in paraumbilical region--THSI was in 2.78 times, in the left subcostal region--in 1.76 times higher in AML than in AA. In the right subcostal region THSI was higher in an AA. Differential algorithm for AML and AA was determined. In children with an AML the circulating immune complexes level in the blood plasma was by 26.4% higher than such in children with an AA, presenting possible additional differential-diagnostical criterion.

The persistence of fetal vitelline structures may occur. The primary intestinal arterial supply development happens normally in this scenario, but a vitelline vascular remnant (VVR) persists. A 13-year-old boy with a history of severe and intermittent abdominal pain since early infancy presented to the Emergency Department with clinical, analytical, and ultrasonographic findings suggestive of acute appendicitis.

In children, 90% cases of intussusception are idiopathic and the remaining 10% are attributed to underlying diseases (most commonly due to Meckel's diverticulum, polyps then either duplication cyst or mesentery cysts, and rarely due to Burkitt's lymphoma). The occurrence of acute intestinal intussusception caused by Burkitt's lymphoma in children under the age of 5 is exceedingly rare. Burkitt's lymphoma presents with diverse clinical manifestations, often leading to the identification of an abdominal tumor in pediatric patients.
