COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF CHILDREN WITH MEKCKEL'S DIVERTICULUM BY LAPAROSCOPIC AND OPEN TECHNIQUE

Abstract

From 2006 to 2021, totally 98 of children with Meckel's diverticulum were treated in the Pediatric Surgery Department of the Republican Scientific Center for Emergency Medical Care. The introduction of endosurgical technologies into DM surgery in children made it possible to level the proportion of “useless” laparotomies due to the possibility of performing laparoscopic diverticulectomy and to limit the frequency of unreasonable laparotomies. Based on the diagnostic process and the choice of the method of surgical treatment, it allows to increase the possibilities and effectiveness of endosurgical technologies, reduce the frequency of unsatisfactory results in the immediate and long-term postoperative period, and reduce bed days.
