The incidence progresses from extremely low in the neonatal period to a peak incidence between ages 12 and 18 years. Prompt diagnosis and management are imperative to prevent serious complications such as perforation, peritonitis, intra-abdominal abscess formation and bowel obstruction. Laparoscopy has improved intra- and post-operative outcomes for children with appendicitis. This study was conducted to evaluate demographics and complications of laparoscopic appendicectomy in Indian children.</p><p><strong>Patients and methods: </strong>This is a retrospective cohort study encompassing 714 consecutive patients of appendicitis operated over 15 years (2006-2021) by a single surgeon at a high-volume private paediatric surgical centre in Western India. Data collected included age and gender, duration of surgery and post-operative variables such as length of stay and early or delayed interventions, if any. The patients were categorised into two groups: complicated appendicitis and non-complicated appendicitis, depending on the operative findings. Patients with acutely inflamed appendix without perforation, peritonitis or collection and patients with chronically inflamed appendix were categorised as non-complicated appendicitis. Patients with perforated or gangrenous appendicitis, appendicular lump and appendicitis with intraperitoneal collection were categorised as complicated appendicitis.
