Surgery for acute appendicitis is an emergency/urgency type procedure. You need to decide quickly. Ultrasound is not very reliable in such cases. If the surgeon who has examined the girl clinically has advised surgery, you should go forward with it.
Next Steps
Prepare for surgery. Consult me online if you have any more doubts.
