Appendix is a small finger-like tube, about 7cm to 10cm long, attached to the cecum just below ileocecal valve. It was considered a vestigial organ for a long time, but recent studies correlate its important role in immune function and maintenance of gut micro biota. Inflammation of appendix is called acute appendicitis. The incidence of appendicitis all over the world is 233 per 100,000 populations per year1. Appendectomy (surgical removal of appendix) is the most common abdominal surgical emergency worldwide. More research needs to be done to establish the exact cause of increased incidence of acute appendicitis during (time mentioned). Only in this way we can avoid such an outbreak in future.
