Pseudo-abdominal syndrome in the practice of a general practitioner–family medicine

Abstract

A separate group of diseases accompanied by severe pain syndrome are diseases of the organs outside the abdominal cavity, but form a symptom complex similar to the acute abdomen – pseudo-abdominal syndrome. The article presents a list of such major pathologies that clinically simulate acute surgical diseases of the abdominal cavity, but unlike the diseases that make up the acute abdominal syndrome, an acute surgical intervention is not required in the pseudo-abdominal syndrome.
