“…Our findings in both groups are co mpatible with theliterature. [4,12,14] Bowel injury, bleeding, stump leakage and intra-abdominal abscess after LA are the most frequent complications. [2] However, in our study no major complications were seen in any of the patients.…”

“…Among the alternatives that do not make use of an invaginating suture, studies advocate the use of an endostapler, endoligature (endoloop), metal clips, bipolar endocoagulation and polymeric clips. [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12] Thus, this prospective non-randomised study was proposed to compare the stump closure techniques using Endoloop and with intracorporeal transfixation of the base of the Appendix in laparoscopic appendectomy, to evaluate various parameters like complications, hospital stay, return of full activities.…”

BACKGROUNDAppendicitis remains one of the most common surgical diseases. Open or laparoscopic appendectomy remains the gold standard treatment for acute appendicitis. The technique of appendectomy may vary from surgeon to surgeon or from centre to centre, starting from skin incision to ligation and invagination of appendiceal stump. However, concerns still exist regarding appendiceal stump closure.The present study was conducted to compare the stump closure techniques of Endoloop versus Intracorporeal Transfixation of the base of the appendix in laparoscopic appendectomy to demonstrate the safety and feasibility in this surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODSThis prospective, non-randomised, controlled study was conducted on 60 patients with appendicitis. The patients from same population were assigned to one of the two groups alternatively; A and B, each consisting of 30 patients. The patients in Group A underwent laparoscopic appendectomy with simple endoloop ligation of the base of appendix, whereas the patients in Group B underwent laparoscopic appendectomy with intracorporeal transfixation of the base of appendix. The findings of subgroups were compared and results were evaluated by IBM-Statistical Package Social Sciences (SPSS) statistical methods. RESULTSPosition and diameter of appendix did not affect the feasibility of stump ligation with both techniques. Both techniques were comparable in terms of post-operative complications and time of appearance of bowel activity. Operative time was significantly more in intracorporeal transfixation technique. CONCLUSIONBoth the techniques are safe, sure and reliable methods for stump closure. Hence, appendix stump ligation should be left to preference of the operating surgeon.

“…But every technique has its own benefits and handicaps. [5,[17][18][19][20][21] For example use of endo-loop for CAS in some cases may prolong the surgery time due to the need for an experience for the application and alignment of the loop. [22] The titanium clips that may be used also has a risk of displacement during the manipulations in the laparoscopy.…”

Intracorporeal Knotting Versus Metal Endoclip Application for the Closure of the Appendiceal Stump During Laparoscopic Appendectomy in Uncomplicated Appendicitis

Abstract: The closure of the appendiceal stump by either intracorporeal knotting or metal endoclipping during laparoscopic appendectomy in uncomplicated appendicitis is safe with comparable morbidity and mortality rates.
