appendicitis: Appendicitis is diagnosed when acute inflammatory cells are identified within the wall of the appendix. Given time the appendix would become abscessed and would rupture leading to a very serious life threatening infection of the abdominal cavity. A simple surgery, an appendectomy, has cured your problem.

Pathology report: When you have "appendicitis", we expect the pathology report to confirm the diagnosis - which is exactly what your report did. The operation successfully took care of that for you. All good.
