“…72,73 While some surgeons may prefer an open approach in children with perforated appendicitis, previous studies have suggested that complication rates in this population may be no different with the use of laparoscopy compared to the open technique. 74 Despite variations in practice, the overall negative appendectomy rate in our study was low; the majority of sites had rates of less than 5%, although variation certainly exists. Our data are consistent with the recent Kids Inpatient Database analysis that showed a negative appendectomy rate of 7%.…”

“…The outcome of 25 children with complicated appendicitis (13 in the laparoscopic group and 12 in the open appendectomy group) were analyzed, that showed two major complications in the laparoscopic group in children with appendiceal masses. Mohammad Reza Vahdad et al (16) assessed the results of laparoscopic (LA) and open appendectomy (OA) in children with perforated appendicitis. They evaluated the medical records of 221 children who experienced LA (n = 75), OA (n = 122) and conversion (CO) (n = 24) and reported that LA is better than OA due to lower incidence of readmission, reoperation and wound infection.…”
