Laparoscopic Appendectomy in Mysore

Overview

Laparoscopic appendectomy in Mysore at Manipal Hospital is a safe and effective way to treat appendicitis using small keyhole incisions. The inflamed appendix is removed with the help of a camera and fine surgical instruments to avoid large cuts. This approach leads to less pain, quicker recovery, and fewer wound problems. The procedure is available round the clock for emergency cases.

How It Works

At Manipal Hospital Mysore, laparoscopic appendectomy is performed under general anesthesia, meaning you are fully asleep and pain-free during surgery. The surgeon makes two to three very small cuts on the abdomen. A tiny camera is inserted through one incision, allowing the surgical team to clearly see the appendix on a screen.

The abdomen is gently inflated with gas to create space for safe movement of instruments. Using specialised tools, the surgeon carefully separates the inflamed appendix from surrounding tissues. The blood supply is sealed, and the appendix is removed through one of the small openings using a protective bag to avoid infection.

If there is pus or infection inside the abdomen, it is thoroughly cleaned before completing the procedure. The incisions are closed with absorbable stitches and covered with small dressings. The surgery usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes. Most patients can start drinking fluids within a few hours and walk the same day, depending on their condition.
