Techniques we offer

Laparoscopic Appendectomy

Laparoscopic appendectomy uses a high-definition camera and thin instruments inserted through 3 small incisions. The surgeon removes the appendix with precision, leading to less post-operative pain, scarring, and quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.

Open Appendectomy

Open appendectomy involves a single larger incision in the lower right abdomen to remove the appendix directly. This method is ideal for patients with a ruptured appendix, severe infection, or extensive abdominal scarring, and is considered the gold standard for complex and emergency appendicitis cases.

Your treatment journey, step by step

  1. Consultation & Diagnosis
    After consultation & physical examination, your doctor evaluates your condition and recommends the right procedure.
  2. Appendectomy Procedure
    General anaesthesia is given, and the appendectomy is performed. The procedure usually takes 30 - 90 minutes.
  3. Post-Surgery Care
    Patients are monitored post-surgery; most patients go home the same day or after 24 hours of observation.
  4. Recovery & Follow-Up
    Laparoscopic appendectomy requires less than 1 week of recovery, while open surgery needs 1 - 2 weeks of healing.

Frequently asked questions

Why is appendectomy recommended?

It is advised for conditions such as acute appendicitis, severe pain in the lower right abdomen, fever with nausea, or a ruptured appendix. It may also be performed to prevent a life-threatening infection from spreading to other organs.

Is the procedure safe, and how long does it take?

Appendectomy is a very common and safe surgical procedure performed under general anaesthesia. A laparoscopic appendectomy typically takes 30 - 60 minutes, while an open appendectomy may take 60 - 90 minutes depending on the complexity of the case.

How painful is it, and what is recovery like?

Most patients experience mild soreness near the incision site, which is managed with prescribed pain medication. Light activities can usually be resumed in 1 - 2 weeks after laparoscopic surgery, while full recovery from open surgery may take 3 - 4 weeks.

What can I eat after the surgery?

You will start with clear liquids in the first 24 - 48 hours, then move to soft foods like khichdi, soups, curd, and boiled vegetables. It is best to avoid spicy food for at least 2 - 3 weeks after surgery. Most patients return to a normal diet within 2 - 3 weeks.

What about stitches and wound care?

Keep the surgical site clean and dry and follow your doctor's advice on dressing changes. In laparoscopic surgery, absorbable internal sutures dissolve on their own. Open surgery may require a wound review after 7 - 10 days.

Will removing the appendix affect my digestion or gut health?

No. The appendix has no essential digestive function. The body continues to function normally without it, and long-term health is unaffected by appendix removal. Most patients resume a fully normal diet and lifestyle within a few weeks.

Can appendicitis be treated without surgery?

In very mild cases, antibiotics may temporarily control the infection. However, surgery remains the definitive and safest treatment to prevent the appendix from rupturing, which can lead to serious, life-threatening complications.
