What Is the Appendix?
The appendix is a small, finger-shaped pouch on the lower right side of your abdomen. While it has no vital digestive function, it can become infected due to blockage, leading to appendicitis, a medical emergency requiring timely treatment.
Causes & Symptoms of Appendicitis
Appendicitis occurs when the appendix gets blocked by stool, a foreign body, or infection.
Common symptoms include:
✅ Sudden abdominal pain (right lower side)
✅ Nausea and vomiting
✅ Fever and loss of appetite
✅ Swelling or tenderness in the abdomen
If left untreated, the appendix may rupture, causing severe infection (peritonitis).
When Is Appendix Surgery Needed?
Appendectomy — surgical removal of the appendix — is the only permanent treatment for appendicitis. Surgery is typically advised when:
🔹 Pain worsens or persists beyond 6 hours
🔹 Fever and vomiting develop
🔹 Ultrasound confirms inflammation or pus formation
🔹 There’s risk of rupture or abscess
Laparoscopic Appendectomy – Step by Step
At Dr. Ankur Surgical Clinic, laparoscopic appendectomy is performed using advanced keyhole techniques:
1️⃣ 3 small incisions are made near the abdomen.
2️⃣ A laparoscope (camera) and micro-instruments are inserted.
3️⃣ The appendix is safely removed under high-definition vision.
4️⃣ The area is cleaned and sutured with minimal scarring.
The procedure usually takes 30–45 minutes, and most patients go home the same or next day.
Benefits of Laparoscopic Appendix Removal
🌟 Tiny cuts, minimal scarring
🌟 Short hospital stay
🌟 Less pain & faster recovery
🌟 Lower infection risk
🌟 Quicker return to daily routine
Recovery & Post-Surgery Care
Most patients recover within 5–7 days. Light walking is encouraged from the next day. Follow the prescribed diet, medications, and wound-care instructions.
Avoid heavy lifting or intense activity for 2 weeks post-surgery.
