What is Appendicitis?

Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, a small pouch attached to the large intestine. It usually causes sudden and extreme abdominal pain. If left untreated, it can lead to serious difficulties, such as a ruptured appendix or life-threatening infections.

Common Symptoms of Appendicitis Include:

  • Sudden pain in the lower right abdomen
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Loss of appetite
  • Fever
  • Bloating or gas
  • Pain that worsens with movement or coughing

If you or a loved one is experiencing these symptoms, quick medical attention is necessary. At ACE Heart, our emergency team is ready 24/7 to provide fast and accurate diagnoses, followed by appropriate treatment.

Types of Appendix Surgery We Offer:

Laparoscopic Appendectomy

This is a minimally invasive surgery performed using small incisions and a laparoscope (a thin tube with a camera). It is the selected choice for most patients due to:

  • Less post-operative pain
  • Minimal scarring
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Faster return to daily activities

Open Appendectomy

This is performed through a single larger incision in cases where the appendix has ruptured or if the infection has spread. It allows the surgeon better access to clean the abdominal cavity and manage complications safely.

What to Expect During Appendix Surgery

Pre-surgical Diagnosis

Our doctors will examine your symptoms and conduct imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scan to confirm appendicitis.

Surgical Procedure

Based on the findings, laparoscopic or open surgery will be recommended. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and usually takes 30–60 minutes.

Recovery & Discharge

Laparoscopic cases often require a 1–2 day hospital stay. Open surgery may need a slightly longer recovery. Patients are given pain relief, antibiotics, and post-op care instructions.

Integrated Care Approach

What makes ACE Heart different is our integrated care system. If you’re an elderly patient or have heart, lung, or kidney conditions, our in-house specialists in cardiology, pulmonology, and nephrology are available to support your surgical journey. From advanced coronary care units (ACCU) to 24/7 ICU monitoring, we ensure that high-risk patients are treated with added safety.

Who Should Seek Appendix Surgery?

You should consult our specialists if you experience:

  • Severe abdominal pain lasting more than a few hours
  • Sudden fever, nausea, or vomiting with pain
  • Pain intensifying with walking or coughing
  • Tenderness in the lower right abdomen

Early intervention can prevent complications such as rupture or peritonitis. Don’t delay seeking care—our emergency team is just a call away.
