Can Surgery For Appendicitis Be Performed With Bulky Ovaries And High TLC Count?
Hello
My wife detected with Appendicitis last month, but due to lump formation operation was not done and medication was suggested. Taking medicines regularly and visited doctor. He asked for CT scan to be done, after looking reports of CT scan and TLC count was high. So he suggested for an operation now, but also said that ovaries are bulky. But will refer to Gynocologist after the operation. What you suggest ??

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Yes, You can go for operation for appendix and after that you can consult a gynaecologist for bulky ovaries.
High TLC count is not any issue for appendectomy.
Good luck.
