Modified single-port laparoscopic appendectomy using needle-type grasping forceps <i>vs</i> conventional three-port laparoscopic appendectomy for acute uncomplicated appendicitis
Compared with the CLA protocol, the mSLAN protocol for acute uncomplicated appendicitis yielded comparable short-term clinical outcomes, with a similar operative time and better cosmetic outcomes, indicating its potential for clinical application and superiority for patients with high cosmetic requirements. Further research is needed to evaluate the long-term outcomes.
