Abstract: Objective To explore the clinical value of transumbilical single-site double-port laparoscopic appendectomy in the treatment of acute appendicitis in children. Methods Clinical data of 94 children with acute appendicitis who underwent transumbilical single-site double-port laparoscopic appendectomy(n=38)and three-port laparoscopic appendectomy(n=56)during July 2020 and July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The preoperative general information, operative skills and outcomes were compared. Results No significant differences were found in age, gender, leukocyte count, liquid diet, length of stay and complications between the two groups. The two-port group had longer operation time but lower costs than the three-port group(P<0.05). Conclusion Transumbilical single-site double-port laparoscopic appendectomy is safe and feasible for pediatric acute appendicitis. Its a supplement and improvement of three-port laparoscopic surgery and can be used widely in clinic.
