Appendix surgery is done when there is inflammation of the appendix. People who suffer from appendicitis go through a lot of pain in the lower right abdomen and around the area surrounding the navel.

Some of the signs shown by such people are nausea, vomiting, sudden and severe pain, loss of appetite, pain in the abdomen, cramps, fever, painful urination, constipation, etc. Also, the pain deteriorates while coughing, walking, sneezing, or any other movement. Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery that is done with a help of a laparoscope, an instrument. Small cuts and incisions are done in this surgery somewhere else in the body, and it is of less pain procedure in which the recovery is quicker.
Laparoscopic surgeries are gaining attention and are very much preferred by the patients these days as they get to recuperate quickly and there is no pain involved in the surgery. These are some of the modern surgical techniques which are done with the help of a camera.

What Is The Cause Of Appendicitis?
80% of cases of acute appendicitis are caused due to obstruction of lumen of appendix. Obstruction could be because of the reasons like a faecolith, worms if present in the intestines and rarely a foreign body like seeds.
What Are The Symptoms?
Severe pain that is around the navel, which shifts to the right lower abdomen after few hours. Coughing and straining cause an increase in the pain. Pain is accompanied by nausea and vomiting. There are very less common complaints that include burning on passing urine and loose stools.
What Is The Treatment?
The treatment of acute appendicitis is removal of the appendix (i.e. Appendicectomy). Appendectomy can be performed as open surgery using one abdominal incision about 2 to 4 inches long . Or the surgery can be done through a few small abdominal incisions (laparoscopic surgery). During a laparoscopic appendectomy, the surgeon inserts special surgical tools and a video camera into your abdomen to remove your appendix.
