A member asked:

What could be the complications of inflamed subhepatic appendix and inflammed mesoappendix. these were the findingsgot my appendix removed last week.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Appendicitis: Apendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix and often it's surrounding tissues (mesoappendix). A sub hepatic appendix refers to the location of the appendix under the liver. It's usually a normal variation in the position of the appendix. You no longer have the appendix so there is no complications. If your appendix had not been removed, you could have had a ruptured appendix with peritonitis.
