PERFORATED APPENDICITIS

Would any of you on the listserver attempt an appendectomy (lap or open) on a patient with a perforated appendicitis with phlegmon and abscess?? If so, what would be your indications?? I have had 2 partners within the last month take 2 separate patients to the OR for the same type of presentation -- both able to succesfully remove the appendix laparoscopically.
