title: [Technical characteristics of laparoscopic appendectomy for acute destructive appendicitis].
abstract: Efficacy of application of laparoscopic technologies in the treatment of destructive forms of an acute appendicitis was estimated. Laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) was performed in 197 patients. The reduction of duration of the patients stationary treatment was noted, as well as of the wound infectioning rate comparing with such indexes, obtained after open appendectomy performance. The efficacy and security of LA in the treatment of patients, suffering destructive forms of an acute appendicitis, was proved.
