Perforated appendicitis is a well-known complication of acute appendicitis (AA), which increases the morbidity rate in children. This report discusses the case of a pediatric patient with perforated appendicitis with a secondary diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The clinical presentation of complicated appendicitis (CA) in association with COVID-19 may not be different from that in the general population. Our patient underwent successful management with open appendectomy and subsequent antibiotics. There is no evidence to alter the standard of care for such patients. So further studies are needed to provide more clarity on the appropriate management.
