What does a minimally invasive appendicitis surgery wound look like?

Minimally invasive surgery for appendicitis is performed around the navel, and the trabecular hole is the main operating hole. For simple mild appendicitis, a single-hole laparoscopy can be taken, and the postoperative wound is only around the navel, with a wound of about 1 cm. For more complicated appendicitis treated minimally invasively, two auxiliary operating holes can also be added to the right abdominal wall, which is easier to operate for complicated, perforated, and septic appendicitis and helps the surgery to be completed smoothly. Overall minimally invasive appendicitis surgery has relatively few surgical wounds, and even the patient’s incision can heal on its own without special sutures after surgery. For patients who want to undergo minimally invasive appendicitis surgery, they can go to a regular hospital for consultation and treatment.
