From Bedside to Bot-Side: Artificial Intelligence in Emergency Appendicitis Management.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Acute appendicitis (AA) is a common cause of abdominal pain that can lead to complications like perforation and intra-abdominal abscesses, increasing morbidity and mortality, often requiring emergency surgery. Nevertheless, appendectomy is performed in up to 95% of uncomplicated cases, while complications like perforation and intra-abdominal abscesses increase morbidity and mortality. The current study compares the accuracy of GPT-4.5, DeepSeek R1, and machine learning in assisting with surgical decision-making for patients presenting with lower abdominal pain at the Emergency Department. Methods: In this multicenter retrospective study, 63 histopathologically confirmed appendicitis patients and 50 control patients with right abdominal pain presenting at the Eme
