Can you have open heart surgery while being pregnant?
It very much depends on the surgery. In general, elective surgery should not be done during a pregnancy. Emergency surgery, such as appendicits, gall bladder attack, trauma such as in a car accident or a broken bone, sometimes needs to be done inspite of a pregnancy. If you are pregnant and are contemplating elective surgery, certainly your doctor needs to know that you are pregnant. Do not go into any surgery knowing you are pregnant without telling your surgeon.

What is keyhole surgery?
Keyhole surgery (laparoscopy/ MIS-minimally invasive surgery) uses a small incision instead of a large incision, to allow the insertion of the medical instruments, lights and a camera into the area of operation. This reduces the damage to surrounding tissue, posssibly gives a quicker recovery, may be less painful and cause less scarring. The area of operation may be inflated for ease of manouevrability, with carbon dioxide gas.
Can you have appendicitis surgery while you are 5 weeks pregnant?
The doctors would be most carefull not to interfere with the baby in the process. There is always a chance of something going wrong though, as surgery stresses the body. I do not think the chances of having a miscarriage due to removal of appendix is large.
