Appendix surgery overview:
Appendix surgery is the removal of the appendix, a tiny, finger-shaped pouch on the right side of the abdomen, due to its swollen & inflamed condition.
The simplest and fastest treatment for appendicitis is an appendectomy, which also helps to prevent potentially fatal side effects like abscess and peritonitis.The primary indications of appendix surgery include an infected appendix where it is suspected to rupture and cause serious complications.
Types of Appendix Surgery:
Open appendectomy: In this procedure, the affected appendix is removed by making a single, large abdominal incision, which is then carefully sealed.
Laparoscopic appendectomy: In this procedure, an appendix is removed through small incisions, guided by a thin, long tube containing a camera.
Procedure Name | Appendix Surgery |

Type of Surgery | Open or laparoscopic surgery |
Type of Anesthesia | Local anesthesia |

Appendix Surgery: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care
Preparation: Before the appendix procedure, you may be advised to fast for a specific period. Also, certain diagnostic tests, such as blood tests & imaging scans, are performed to understand the nature of appendicitis.
During the Procedure: Once in the procedure room, you will be administered anesthesia, followed by making small or large incisions in the lower abdomen region, depending on the type of appendectomy, to access the appendix. Additionally, the incisions are properly closed after the appendix is tied off with sutures and removed from the body.
Recovery: The length of time it takes to recover from an appendectomy is determined by the type of surgery, extent of the infection, and whether or not there was an appendix rupture. Following the procedure, you will typically spend one or two days in the hospital. The healing time in open surgery is typically higher than in laproscpoic procedures, which can be nearly 2-3 weeks.
Post-Procedure Care: Keep the incision clean, take prescribed medication, follow dietary restrictions, and attend follow-up appointments for monitoring.
