Appendectomy

certified classic surgery, used to give em out like candy to anyone going more than a day or two away from civilization. easy recovery, laproscopic version leaves almost no scars. one of the very few surgeries that has been sucessfully self-performed, and it's been done many times, often mid voyage on a grimy ship with dull tools and no anesthetic. cures a guaranteed-lethal condition, with almost 100% success rate. truly one of the greatest surgeries of all time

My first surgery, recovery wasn't too bad and I only have three tiny scars However one of them is in my belly button and now it's permanently folded weird
