We read the paper “Limiting hospital resources for acute appendicitis in children: Lessons learned from the U.S. epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic” by Dr. Charlotte L Kvasnovsky and colleagues [1] with great interest and would like to comment on our institutional experience with regards to the management of pediatric patients presenting to our center with acute appendicitis during SARS-CoV-2.
