Comparative analysis of surgical outcomes of laparoscopic appendectomy performed by six surgeons with different subspecialties: a retrospective cohort study using risk-adjusted cumulative summation
Outcomes of laparoscopic appendectomy varied by subspecialty and length of experience. However, each surgeon showed trends of decreasing surgical failure over time. These results suggest that the surgeon's subspecialty minimally affects the outcomes of laparoscopic appendectomy, reflecting its fundamental nature within general surgery.
