Abstract
The treatment of complicated appendicitis has moved from conservative treatment to immediate appendectomy and laparoscopic appendectomy has become the treatment of choice for this condition. Laparoscopic appendectomy is safe and associated with reduced morbidity, but it was initially associated with increased intra-abdominal abscess rates. With time there seems to be a reduction in this complication rate and hence we have conducted this review article to look at the use of laparoscopic appendectomy in the management of complicated appendicitis, with regards to complications and morbidity.
