    Abstract:
    The surgical technique for removal of the appendix has remained unaltered for many years. Recently, laparoscopic surgery has been introduced with advantages for many patients. We report 2 patients with acute appendicitis who were operated on with laparoscopic surgery at a regional hospital in southern Chile. This technique may become routinely available to general surgeons in the near future.
