Subjects and methods: The research was conducted on 322 patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy and open appendectomy at Sonla Province General Hospital from 01 - 01 - 2012 to 30 - 12 - 2013. Sample selection error is controlled by Propensity Score Matching (n = 109 pairs). Results and conclusions: The hospital stay in the group of laparoscopic appendectomy ( ± days) was less than that of open appendectomy ( ± days), but the difference did not have statistical significance (p > ). The cost of open appendectomy and laparoscopic appendectomy in cases with complications (5, thousand and 5, thousand VND) was higher than the group without complications (5, thousand and 5, thousand). The cost of treatment of open appendectomy was higher than that of laparoscopic appendectomy, yet the effectiveness of laparoscopic appendectomy () was higher than that of open appendectomy (), (p > ). Therefore, laparoscopic appendectomy is the best choice for the patients with acute appendicitis. * Keywords: Appendicitis; Laparoscopic appendectomy; Cost.
