HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
How is Laparoscopic Appendectomy Surgery Performed?
Laparoscopic appendectomy is performed under general anesthesia through small abdominal incisions, using a camera and specialized instruments to safely remove the appendix.
Preoperative Assessment
Before surgery, Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a thorough clinical evaluation, including medical history, physical examination, blood investigations, ultrasound or CT scan when required, and anesthetic fitness assessment. These investigations help confirm the diagnosis and determine the urgency of surgery.
General Anesthesia
Laparoscopic appendectomy is performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete patient comfort throughout the procedure. The anesthesia team continuously monitors all vital signs to maintain maximum safety.
Surgical Procedure
Three small incisions are made in the abdomen to insert a high-definition laparoscope and specialized surgical instruments. The inflamed appendix is carefully identified, separated from the surrounding tissues, and removed safely. The base of the appendix is securely sealed before removal to prevent leakage or infection. If infection or pus is present, the abdominal cavity is thoroughly cleaned before completing the procedure.
Appendix Removal
Once detached, the appendix is placed inside a sterile retrieval bag and removed through one of the small incisions. The surgical area is inspected to ensure there is no bleeding or contamination before the incisions are closed.
Postoperative Care
After surgery, patients are monitored for pain control, recovery from anesthesia, bowel function, and wound healing. Early walking is encouraged to reduce complications, and most patients can resume oral intake within a few hours after surgery.
RECOVERY
Recovery After Laparoscopic Appendectomy Surgery
Recovery is usually quick, with gradual activity, light meals, wound care, prescribed medications, and follow-up while avoiding strenuous activities until fully healed.
01.
Hospital Stay
Most patients are discharged within 24 hours, although those with complicated appendicitis may require a slightly longer hospital stay.
02.
Diet
Patients usually begin with liquids a few hours after surgery and gradually return to a normal balanced diet as tolerated. Adequate hydration and a fiber-rich diet help support recovery.
03.
Activity
Walking is encouraged on the day of surgery or the following day. Most patients return to light daily activities within 5 to 7 days, while strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for 2 to 4 weeks.
04.
Follow-up
Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor wound healing, review the pathology report if required, assess recovery, and ensure there are no postoperative complications.
