Abstract: 

Appendectomy is the most common surgical procedure performed in emergency surgery. Appendectomy is still being performed by both open (OA) and laparoscopic (LA) methods because of lack of consensus about the most appropriate technique. In this review article, we aimed to compare the laparoscopic approach and the conventional technique in the treatment of acute appendicitis.
