Appendicitis Surgery in Ahmedabad

The laparoscopic appendectomy method is a non-invasive way to treat inflamed swollen and infected appendix. Inflammation of appendix is caused due to bacteria, fungus and even the micro organisms contributing in air pollution. Appendicitis could prove fatal and so immediate medical attention should be sought on sighting symptoms. Look out for the following signs which characterize appendicitis. Make sure to book yourself an appointment even if one sign holds true:

• Recurrent pain - Persistent pain emanating from belly button spreading to lower abdomen is a sign suggesting appendicitis.
• Loss of appetite - Loss of appetite and thus a decreased dietary intake.
• Nausea and persistent vomiting - An affected digestion because of nauseous feeling and bouts of vomiting.

There are few radiological and blood based diagnostic tests ordered by the doctor for establishing presence of infection of appendix due to inflammation. Few of the tests are as follows:

• Abdominal X-ray - An Abdominal X-ray is helpful in detecting the cause of appendicitis.
• Ultrasound - Ultrasound makes use of sound waves to detect abnormalities in inner structure and muscles. In this context, an enlarged appendix could alert the doctor to order an appendectomy.
• CT-scan - A CT-scan is a highly reliable and accurate method to detect issues of appendix and whether the patient really requires an appendectomy.
• Laparoscopy - In this diagnostic type, a laparoscope is inserted into the abdomen for viewing the appendix and pelvic organs. If inflammation is found in the appendix the inflamed area can be removed then and there.
• Urianalysis - In urianalaysis, urine sample is studied under the microscope for studying the extent of inflammation of appendix, if there. A normal result suggests presence of appendicitis.
