Appendicitis Surgery Q&A What is Appendicitis surgery?

Appendicitis is defined as an inflammation of the inner lining of the vermiform appendix that spreads to its other parts. This condition is a common and urgent surgical illness.

Which bariatric surgery options are available? To help you lose weight, Dr. Sutker offers many types of minimally invasive weight loss surgery:

Sleeve gastrectomy A sleeve gastrectomy involves reducing the size of your stomach from a large sac into a thin tube to limit how much you can eat.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass The goal of gastric bypass surgery is to reduce your stomach size by creating a smaller pouch to hold food. Your intestines attach to this new stomach pouch to preserve the usual digestion process.

Revisional weight loss surgery Revision weight loss surgery is a treatment option if you previously had a weight loss surgery, such as a Lap-Band, and are no longer seeing weight loss results. All bariatric surgeries Dr. Sutker performs require only small incisions to make changes to your stomach. He also relies on the da Vinci® robotic surgical system to operate with a higher level of precision.

Am I a candidate for Appendicitis surgery?

The appendix is a blind-ending tubular structure arising from the cecum. Appendicitis results from an acute inflammation of the appendix and creates the most common abdominal surgical emergency.

Nutritional supplementation after surgery Procedures that alter your stomach – particularly Roux-en-Y gastric bypass – affect your body's ability to absorb micronutrients as well as calories. Therefore, it's essential to take vitamin supplementation following your bariatric surgery. You can purchase Bariatric Fusion® and Celebrate® nutritional supplements by calling Dr. Sutker's bariatric coordinator or through an e-store. Medical professionals formulate these specialized supplements to meet the specific dietary needs of those who have had weight loss surgery
