What is Laparoscopic Appendectomy ?

Laparoscopic appendectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove the appendix using tiny incisions and a camera-guided tool called a laparoscope. This technique is preferred for most cases of appendicitis, as it allows for faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring compared to open surgery. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and is highly effective for treating inflamed or infected appendices.

Common Causes for Appendix Removal

Acute appendicitis (inflammation of the appendix)
Infection or swelling of the appendix
Risk of rupture or abscess formation
Failure of conservative treatment
Recurrent abdominal pain due to appendix issues

Delaying treatment for appendicitis can lead to serious complications like rupture, abscess, or peritonitis. Seek immediate medical attention if you have severe abdominal pain.

Laparoscopic appendectomy uses two to three small incisions to access and remove the appendix. The minimally invasive approach results in less trauma, quicker healing, and a shorter hospital stay. At Baines Hospital, our surgeons use the latest technology to ensure safe and effective outcomes for every patient.
