Transumbilical Laparoscopic Appendectomy

Ssince the appendix becomes infected when it is removed from the umbilicus, the infected appendix contacts the edge of the incision during release, thus contaminating the incision and causing postoperative wound infection. Additionally, in the experimental, to prevent this wound infection, after the appendix is taken out through the umbilical incision, the appendix is placed inside the glove finger, thus preventing the appendix from touching the wound during its release. This reduces wound infection in the postoperative period.
