Objective, To compare the advantage and disadvantage between laparoscopic appendectomy with conventional operation for the treatment of appendicitis. To explore the clinical application value of laparoscopic,and provide clinical basis for the acute appendicitis operation selection and scientific research direction.Methods In this study,we collected 210 cases which were diagnosed as appendicitis and received surgery. They were divided into group A(laparoscopic appendectomy)and group B(conventional operation). In group A,108 patients were treated with laparoscopic appendectomy.In group B,102 patients were treated with conventional open appendectomy. The inhospital data and hospitalization expenses were compared.Results The results showed: 1)Compared to group B,group A have less intraoperative blood loss, faster recovery of gastrointestinal function, less antibiotic usage, lower incidence of postoperative complications such as infection of incision, 2) The incision and cosmetic effection of group A is better than group B, 3) Compared to group B, group A have less recovery time after surgery and hospitalization expenses does not increase.Conclusion : Laparoscopic appendectomy is a good therapy of choice for patients with acute appendicitis with advantages of minimal invasion,early recovery,few complications and hospitalization expenses do not increase. It is worth to use laparoscopic as a routine operation selection for acute appendicitis.
