Understanding Appendix Surgery
When appendicitis strikes, fast treatment is critical. At Orlando Minimally Invasive Surgery (OMIS), our expert surgical team provides safe, effective, and advanced appendectomy procedures designed to restore your health with minimal downtime.
What Is Appendix Surgery?
An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix, a small organ in the lower right abdomen that can quickly become inflamed or infected. Left untreated, appendicitis can lead to severe complications. Our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive techniques, helping patients recover faster with less discomfort.
Signs You May Need an Appendectomy
Appendicitis can develop quickly—seek medical care if you notice:
- Sudden, sharp pain in the lower right abdomen
- Nausea, vomiting, or loss of appetite
- Fever, chills, or abdominal swelling
- Pain that worsens with movement or coughing
At OMIS, our team provides rapid evaluation and timely surgery to ensure the best outcomes.
