Yes. Pretty much any surgical procedure in which the skin is breached will leave a scar. Appendectomy scars are typically small these days (around an inch or two) although in patients with more abdominal girth it may be necessary to make a longer incision. Sometimes appendectomy is done laparoscopically, in which case there are three or four tiny incisions (a centimeter or so long) and one is usually placed in the bellybutton to hide it.

Where is the location of the appendectomy scar?
Yes, appendectomy scars will be above the pubic hair, below the belly button, it basically all depends on the surgeon. I have three appendectomy scars, and they are not in the appendix area. One is tright below the belly button, the other is right above the pubic hairline in the middle and the last one is over to the left of the bellybutton/pubic hair in th emiddle. So it all depends on the surgeon. Hope that helps? Read more: Appendix and Appendicitis Forum - Appendectomy Scar http://ehealthforum.com/health/topic33088.html#ixzz1kUzKdCgf

Large wounds can leave a scar because the healing process involves the production of collagen fibers, which can be thicker and more pronounced in larger wounds.
