Most children stay in the hospital one to three days after an appendectomy if the appendix did not burst and if there were no complications.
Surgery is the main treatment of appendicitis. Delaying surgery until the cause of the abdominal pain is certain can be fatal: An infected appendix can rupture less than 36 hours after symptoms begin. If appendicitis is found, fluids and antibiotics are given by vein and the appendix is removed (appendectomy).
