Laparoscopic Appendectomy

Laparoscopic Appendectomy

Appendectomy is an operation to remove the appendix when it has become inflamed; an inflamed appendix is called appendicitis. The appendix is a narrow, finger-shaped organ located in the lower right side of the belly. It is connected to the large intestine, and has no function in humans. Appendectomy is done as an emergency surgery for appendicitis because the appendix has become inflamed (swollen) and needs to be removed. If it is not removed, it could burst and cause infection called peritonitis in the abdomen. A laparoscopic or “lap” appendectomy is a minimally invasive surgery to remove the appendix through 2-3 small incisions, rather than through one large one. Recovery time from the lap appendectomy is short
