What is your appendix? Your appendix is a small tube about the same size as your little finger. It is attached to the beginning of your large intestine (the caecum - say: see-kem), near where the small and large intestines meet. One end opens into the large intestine but the other end is closed. It has a lining which passes fluid from the blood vessels into the middle of the appendix.
What is the normal size of the appendix? A: A human appendix is between 2 and 20 centimeters long, with an average length of 11 centimeters in an adult. It is located at the cecum in the space between the large and small intestine. The appendix can be found on the lower right side of the body.
