The utility of appendectomy performed with laparoscopic procedure is at the present accepted by many surgeons, especially when there is uncertain diagnosis of appendicitis or when an ectopic position is suspected. The authors describe the case report of a 17 years old woman with a diagnosis of subacute appendicitis, in which the unsuccessful finding of the appendix made necessary conversion of traditional laparotomy approach to laparoscopic technique. This choice avoided the execution of an enlargement of laparotomy access, and allowed an easy finding of appendix. Aesthetic results at a distance are very satisfying.
目前，许多外科医生都认可腹腔镜阑尾切除术的实用性，尤其是在阑尾炎诊断不明确或怀疑阑尾异位的情况下。作者描述了一名17岁诊断为亚急性阑尾炎女性的病例报告，在该病例中，未能成功找到阑尾，因此有必要将传统剖腹手术方法转换为腹腔镜技术。这一选择避免了扩大剖腹手术切口，并且便于找到阑尾。远期美学效果非常令人满意。
