What Causes Death After Appendix Operation?
My wife was expired after the operation of appendix. She died after 10 after she was operated. Also note that her appendix was not dangerous, because there are some doctor who are saying that discharge her and they would operate after two weeks and will give some medicines to stop infection. I mean to say that her appedix is not dangerous

HI
Well come to HCM
Sorry to hear that, severe appendix infection can cause septicemia, this would be likely cause of death in appendicitis, else to know the exact cause of death autopsy is the only option that gives the reason of death, take care.
