Summary

This study looks at whether people with a severe type of appendicitis (gangrenous) can safely go home shortly after their appendix is removed, instead of staying in the hospital. About 122 patients will be randomly assigned to either standard hospital care or same-day discharge. The goal is to see if outpatient management is safe, effective, and cheaper, without increasing complications.
