Acute Appendicitis is perhaps the most common emergency surgical conditions in the routine daily work of a general surgeon whether in a busy public hospital setup, academic university medical centre or a community private hospital setup.
The standard treatment is emergency Appendectomy/Appendicectomy.
Appendectomy can be performed either by Laparoscopic Method or by Open Method (see video).
For a lean patient and children,Open Appendectomy is the best choice.
For an obese adult especially female,the Laparoscopic Appendectomy is the best option.
