Hi, appendicitis is a condition characterised by inflammation of the appendix. Appendix is taken out on the birth in some countries. Some mild cases may resolve without treatment, but most require removal of the inflamed appendix. Usually, laparotomy or laparoscopy are used for removal. If peritonitis and shock develop, the outcome is fatal. The causes of appendicitis remain unknown. Populations with high fiber diets have been to have low appendicitis and diverticulitis rate.
