Abstract :

 Since 1987, laparoscopy has emerged as a new technique both for the diagnosis and treatment of acute appendicitis. The superiority of laparoscopic appendicectomy over conventional appendectomy continues to be a cause of some debate. There are a number of theoretical advantages for the laparoscopic approach including decreased incidence of wound affection, less pain and reduced hospitalisation.             Our institution is well equipped with a laparoscopic surgical unit since 2006 as well as senior staff trained in laparoscopy. This study was chosen to evaluate laparoscopic appendicectomy in a prospective and scientific fashion with respect to the above factors as well as others, thus aiding to substantiate facts, rectify errors of learning curve as well as to install a oader interest in laparoscopy with respect to other surgeries as well.
