Abstract

The author suggests a modification of the invagination method of appendectomy without ligation of the stump. This method is the most physiologic one; it minimizes the inflammatory process and prevents an undue formation of adhesions. Experimental grounds for the method are described. 204 patients were operated upon. This method has shown better long-term results as compared to typical appendectomy.
