This article reports a new technique for laparoscopic appendectomy. The endocoagulator is used to effect sealing of the appendicular vessels, by heat, before their division. The technical steps are described. The results obtained from 30 cases prove its efficacy, safety, simplicity, and adaptability to varying clinical situations. The possible benefit of future nonadhesion formation is discussed.
