- W3200533357 abstract "Background: Economic evaluation in health care is becoming increasingly important. Laparoscopic appendectomy (LAp) is one of the most frequent minimally invasive procedures in the pediatric population. The increased costs of this approach in any indication could be justified by proving its cost-utility in terms of health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We aim to perform a cost-utility analysis between open and LAp (open appendectomy [OAp] and LAp). Materials and Methods: We included the data of children operated for acute noncomplicated appendicitis, who agreed to answer a validated quality of life (QoL) questionnaire. Costs were calculated for each patient. We established a threshold for cost-effectiveness (λ) of 20,000 to 30,000€ per quality adjusted life year (QALY) according to previous research. Results: A total of 53 patients were included. Overall mean costs in the OAp were 758.98€ and in the LAp 1525.50€. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 18,000€/QALY, under the threshold of cost-effectiveness, therefore favoring the laparoscopic approach as it improves HRQoL despite the costs. Conclusions: Economic evaluation studies in Pediatric Surgery are scarce and rarely measure outcomes in terms of QoL. This information is important in the decision-making process for institutions and health-care professionals. Our results encourage the use of laparoscopy in pediatric appendectomy to improve HRQoL in our patients." @default.
