| Abstract | ||||
| Background: The current research sought to evaluate and contrast the effectiveness and complications of endo-loop ligation and clipping in securing the appendicular stump during appendectomy operation using laparoscope. Methods: This research involved 60 patients diagnosed with acute appendicitis, who were splitted into two groups: endoloop group and polymeric clipping group. Analysed were the surgical time, operative problems, and post-operative outcomes and complications in both groups for comparative investigations. Results: The surgical procedure duration was notably greater in the endo-loop ligation group compared to the clipping group. The groups did not show any notable disparities in terms of the average duration of the hospital stay, time taken to return to work, and post-operative problems. The overall cost of endoloop ligation was significantly greater than that of clipping. Conclusion: The utilisation of clips in surgery is time-saving, faster to perform, and easier for physicians compared to ligation procedures, which require prior skill in dealing with a large, hard, and easily crumbled appendiceal stump. | ||||
