AB  - About  7%  of  all  people  will  develop  appendicitis  over  the  course  of  their  lifetime.1  Each  year  in  the  United  States,  about  60,000  to  80,000  children  develop  appendicitis.  It  is  particularly  common  in  the  preteen  and  teen  years,  with  the  average  age  of  onset  being  about  10  years.  Before  puberty,  boys  and  girls  are  affected  equally;  after  puberty,  there  is  a  slight  male  predominance.
