Surgical removal of vermiform appendix is known as Appendicectomy or Appendectomy. Normally performed in emergencies when patients are suffering from acute conditions of appendicitis, minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures are useful for diagnosis in doubt. Recovery is also quicker with laparoscopy procedures even though it is expensive and resource intensive compared to open surgery.
