title: [Laparoscopic appendectomy using the out-transumbilical method-- personal experience].
abstract: The author present an account of his experience with 80 laparoscopic appendectomies using the method out (LAPPE-out). It is a method combining the advantages of laparoscopy, i.e. mininvasiveness and the possibility to view the abdominal cavity with the certainty of treating the base of the appendix under direct visual control. As to the length of the operation and its pretentiousness it matches classical appendectomy (class. APPE), as regards postoperative comfort and possibilities of laparoscopy it is clearly superior to the latter.
