A member asked:
Do they take out appendix during hysterectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: The practice of routine removal of the appendix with hysterectomy not related to cancer is not very common anymore. A few studies showed you were more likely to have a complication from the removal of your appendix, then ever develop a problem with it on your own.
