Summary
Coelioscopic surgery for appendicitis is a practical treatment, significantly reducing hospital stays. This minimally invasive approach demonstrated low morbidity and no mortality in 150 cases.
Area of Science:
- Surgical Procedures
- Gastrointestinal Surgery
Background:
- Appendicitis remains a common surgical emergency.
- Minimally invasive techniques are increasingly preferred for abdominal surgeries.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the outcomes of coelioscopic surgery for appendicitis.
- To evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic appendectomy.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective study of 150 coelioscopic appendectomies over 42 months.
- Data collected on patient demographics, surgical indications, methods, and outcomes.
Main Results:
- Coelioscopic surgery was performed more than three times during the study period.
- Typical appendicitis accounted for 82.6% of cases.
- Morbidity included 2% parietal abscess; no mortality was observed.
Conclusions:
- Coelioscopic surgery is an effective and practical method for treating appendicitis.
- This approach facilitates shorter hospitalizations.
- Laparoscopic appendectomy is a safe procedure with minimal complications.
