Preservation Versus Routine Removal: Morbidity and Long‐Term Outcomes Following Diagnostic Laparoscopy Versus Negative Appendectomy—A Regional Multicentre Observational Cohort Study

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 2917-2926, October 2026.
Guidelines recommend laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) for a macroscopically normal appendix when no pathology is identified during diagnostic laparoscopy (DL) for suspected acute appendicitis (AA). This approach may lead to increased hospitalization, higher costs, and greater morbidity. Whether these guidelines are justified remains debatable.
