Title: Laparoscopic versus open appendectomy in treatment of acute appendicitis | ||
Author: M. Oravsky, V. Bak, M. Schnorrer | ||
Abstract: Introduction: The authors present the results of a retrospective study comparing the laparoscopic and open procedures of appendectomy for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Material and methods. Retrospective analysis of the results of both methods on a set of 161 patients in period 2006–2010. Results: Regarding the intraabdominal complications and hospitalization periods, results confirm the equivalence of both methods. A significantly lower incidence of wound complications as well as shorter hospital stay were experienced in the laparoscopy-treated group of patients. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the laparotomic appendectomy would be reserved for appendicitis with diffuse peritonitis. The laparoscopy is positively preferred in obese patients (Tab. 3, Ref. 16). |
