The transumbilical laparoscopic assisted appendectomy combines the simplicity and the safety of conventional appendectomy with the survey of laparoscopic appendectomy. It minimizes the trauma of surgery and shows a perfect cosmetic result. Authors suggested this method as an alternative to conventional appendectomy and used it successfully in 3 cases.
