A Prospective Study of Laparoscopic Appendicectomy for the Treatment of Acute Appendicitis

Abstract

Aims and Objective:To study the efficacy, safety and clinical outcome of patients undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy in the treatment of acutely inflamed appendix. Materials and Methods: Laparoscopic Appendicectomy is used as day to day procedure for acute appendicitis. Case study of 42 patients undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy is studied in prospective data analysing duration of intraoperative time, complications during surgery, after surgery complications, time until resumption of orals, joining back to work, postoperative debility and length of hospital admission. Results: Total 42 patients underwent laparoscopic appendectomy 21 were male and 21 were female with the mean age of patient undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy was 26.66 years. Pain in abdomen was most common symptom followed by nausea. All patients were discharged at around second day. Conclusion: Laparoscopic appendicectomy patients were admitted for lesser duration and their post operative pain was of less intensity. Patients of laparoscopic appendicectomy were started oral diet earlier.

Effectiveness and Safety of Laparoscopic Approach in The Management of Complicated Appendicitis

“…Laparoscopic appendectomy has rapidly developed in recent years. Since Semm published the first complete removal of the appendix via laparoscopic surgery in 1983 and Schreiber performed the first laparoscopic appendectomy in a patient with acute appendicitis in 1987, laparoscopic appendectomy has been included in practically all hospitals worldwide as the usual procedure in emergency departments [5].…”

Evaluation of Laparoscopic Appendectomy In Complicated Appendicitis

“…Since Semm issued the first complete amputation of the appendix through laparoscopic operation in 1983 and Schreiber did the first laparoscopic appendectomy in a patient with acute appendicitis in 1987, laparoscopic appendectomy has been involved in nearly all hospitals international as the traditional technique in emergency departments. 4 Benefits of laparoscopic appendectomy consist of a quick return to usual Authorship: All authors have a substantial contribution to the article.…”
