Özet
I read with great interest the article by
Roberts et al.1 I want to thank the authors
and the journal for the first published
study that compares transvaginal (TVA) and
traditional laparoscopic appendectomies
(LA). Their study included 18 patients in
TVA and 22 patients in LA groups. They
reported that ‘‘mean operative time (TVA:
44.4 4.5 minutes vs LA: 39.8 2.6 minutes,
P¼ 0.38) and mean length of hospital stay
(TVA: 1.1 0.1 days vs LA: 1.2 0.1 days,
P¼ 0.53) were not statistically significant.’’
They also commented that similar operative
times could be attributed to the single incision
of the TVA, previous single port experience
of the surgeon, and the assistance of the
gynecologists.
