Operating time was longer in the OA group compared to LA group and was tatistically significant. The median operation time for the LA was 20-30 minutes while that of OA was 40-50 minutes. Patients who underwent LA had a shorter hospital stay compared to OA group. The average duration of hospital stay for LA group in the study was 3-4 days while for the OA group was 5-6 days. In the LA group, only 1 patient (2%) developed caecal perforation, while 3 (6%) patients developed port site infections . For those undergoing OA, 16% had complications.
