Comparison of methods for closure of appendix stump during laparoscopic appendectomy using endoloops: Single surgeon experience.

CONCLUSION: Using a double endoloop does not decrease the risk of post-operative complications, but it does increase the cost and the duration of the operation. We have concluded that using a single endoloop in a laparoscopic appendectomy may be more appropriate.
