Possible abscess: Most common complication following laparascopic surgery is intraabdominal abscess. Slow development of abscess may be due to slow development of interstitial infection due to local tissue damage in ileocecal area due to CO2 pneumoperitoneum and local thermal effect by high energies. Small abscess rx is antibiotic, while large abscess may be drained by catheter placemen or surgery and antibiotic
