Evaluation

What is Laparoscopic Appendectomy?

Appendectomy is the surgery to remove the appendix — a small, finger-shaped pouch attached to the large intestine. When it becomes swollen or infected (appendicitis), it causes severe pain and can burst if not treated on time. Removing the appendix is the only permanent cure.

Why is Appendectomy Needed?

You may need this surgery if you have:

  • Appendicitis (the most common cause)
  • Severe right-lower-abdominal pain
  • Fever, vomiting, or loss of appetite along with pain
  • Infection or pus around the appendix
  • A risk of the appendix bursting (perforation)
  • Appendicular mass or repeated episodes of pain

Treatment Options

Why Laparoscopic Appendectomy Is Better

At Vivanta, the appendix is removed using laparoscopy — through 2–3 tiny cuts with a camera and fine instruments, which gives a better view and faster recovery.

Benefits of Laparoscopic Appendectomy

  • Smaller cuts → minimal scarring
  • Less pain after surgery
  • Faster healing and quicker return to daily activities
  • Lower infection risk
  • Shorter hospital stay

Key Features
