What Causes Death After Appendix Operation?

My wife was expired after the operation of appendix. She died after 10 after she was operated. Also note that her appendix was not dangerous, because there are some doctor who are saying that discharge her and they would operate after two weeks and will give some medicines to stop infection. I mean to say that her appedix is not dangerous
