Sponsor's own description
Background Acute appendicitis is the most frequent abdominal surgical emergency worldwide, peaking in incidence between the second and third decade of life. Appendectomy was the only treatment for appendicitis for more than a century, and it is still the most common treatment. The surgical treatment for appendicitis is an appendectomy, which can be performed laparoscopically or openly. The purpose of the current study is to determine and measure the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic appendectomy with LigaSure and harmonic US scalpels. Patients and methods: This research was carried out from January 2023 to January 2025, involved 60 patients who complained of acute lower abdominal pain in their right side, and were diagnosed with suspected acute appendicitis. Two groups of patients were formed: Group A had an appendectomy performed laparoscopically using a harmonic US scalpel, and group B underwent a laparoscopic appendectomy using LigaSure.
