Conventional surgery — If the appendix has ruptured, it is vital to remove the entire cavity formed by such a circumstance, as this could quickly lead to other difficulties. The surgeon makes a big incision to simply and thoroughly remove the whole abdominal cavity. Appendicitis surgery is also beneficial for those who have digestive system malignancies.

Laparoscopy – Laparoscopy, also known as minimally invasive surgery. In this surgery, the surgeon employs a very thin tube (laparoscope) containing a tiny camera with its lights inside the abdomen. Once we can see clearly, more ports are inserted for long and narrow instruments. The appendix is gently disconnected and is removed through one of the incisions.

Open surgery is recommended when the appendix has ruptured, the infection has moved to the abdomen, or there is an abscess. The appendix is removed with a single big cut or incision in the abdomen.

Abscess drainage: When the appendix bursts and an abscess forms around it, the doctor must drain the pus from the body and treat the infection with an antibiotic before performing open surgery. The procedure can be performed once the infection has been resolved.
