Abstract

Aim: Laparoscopic appendectomy has been performed in increasing numbers since it was first described in 1980. Nowadays, it is being performed by using the three-, two-and single-port methods. We performed two-port hand-assisted laparoscopic appendectomies and reported our prospective results.
