Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix that can cause sudden abdominal pain, often shifting to the lower right side. Fever, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite may also occur.

Treatment Methods

When surgery is indicated, the appendix is removed through an appendectomy.

• Laparoscopic Appendectomy – Minimally invasive removal through small incisions.

• Open Appendectomy – Removal through a larger incision when required.
  

The appropriate approach depends on the severity of appendicitis and the patient's overall condition.

Eligibility & Age

Appendectomy may be advised for confirmed appendicitis or certain complications. There is no universal age restriction, and the procedure may be performed in children and adults when medically necessary.

Conclusion

Timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment are important for appendicitis. A qualified surgeon can determine whether surgery is required and which approach is appropriate.
