Dear Lynetta Muhin Generally in laparoscopic appendicectomy we do not apply any clip. We use either knot or Endo GI stapler. Some surgeons are using titanium clips for mesoappendix. If the clip is used also it is getting covered by fibrous tissue after some time and it should not cause pain. You should take advice from the surgeon who has performed the surgery.
