Appendectomy
Appendectomy treats appendicitis before rupture, usually with laparoscopic surgery and a safe, quick recovery.
The appendix can become inflamed (appendicitis), leading to severe pain and risk of rupture.
Surgical removal prevents complications such as infection or peritonitis. Appendectomy is performed laparoscopically in most cases, though open surgery may be required for advanced disease.
Timely treatment allows for a safe and relatively quick recovery.
