Predicting Complications in Laparoscopic Appendectomy Using AI-Driven Disease Severity Assessment

1

Acute appendicitis has a global lifetime risk of 7-8% and its prevalence increased by approximately 20% from 1990 to 2019.
2

Laparoscopic appendectomy is the gold-standard treatment, with complication rates of 10% and mortality rates of 1-5%.
3

Current preoperative measures do not reliably predict operative findings or perioperative outcomes in laparoscopic appendectomy.
4

The Surgical Intelligence Platform uses AI to analyze surgical videos for disease severity assessment, showing high accuracy in grading.
5

The study aims to assess the relationship between AI-derived disease severity and perioperative complications in laparoscopic appendectomy.
