Abstract
During the era of laparoscopic surgery common trend has been towards less invasive techniques and a natural
extension of the trend is to perform operations without scars. The most prominent techniques representing scar less
surgery are trans-umbilical single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) and natural orifice trans-luminal endoscopic
surgery (NOTES). SILS appendectomy may be even more advantageous to the patients by eliminating the scars and
potentially diminishing postoperative pain. The study subjects were consists of follow up cases of acute appendicitis
which was manage conservatively will underwent single incision laparoscopic interval appendectomy after one and half
month of acute attack to know feasibility of Single Incision Laparoscopic Appendectomy using conventional equipments
and to formulate preoperative guideline for appropriate selection of patients for above procedure.
