“…The significant rate of pneumonia (18% in open, 0% in laparoscopic), may be explained by the fact that performing an upper abdominal incision limits the respiratory effort of the patient due to increased postoperative pain, which then leads to atelectasis and other complications. This has also been commonly demonstrated by previous studies [ 29 , 33 , 34 ]. Despite comparable large perforation sizes in both groups, there were no cases of leakage, intraabdominal fluid collection, need for re-exploration or mortality in the laparoscopic group.…”

“…Of course, these cases were properly resuscitated before transfer to the operative theater. In another study, Zedan et al (10) has reported that shock was present in 12.5 and 9.5% of cases in the laparotomy and laparoscopic groups respectively, without any significant difference between the study groups (p =-0.75).…”

“…On the contrary, Zedan and his colleagues (10) reported that the duration of operation was significantly shorter in the laparotomy group (110 vs. 145 minutes in the laparoscopic groupp = 0.0001). Moreover, a previous meta-analysis confirmed the prolonged operative time in laparotomy group versus laparoscopic one (94 vs. 135 minutesp < 0.05) 14 .…”
