It is hard to tell you whether you have a medical malpractice case given the factual description you have provided. If you are suggesting that your daughter suffered an infection because the surgeon mistakenly ruptured her appendix during the surgery to remove it then you may have a malpractice case. You should contact a medical malpractice attorney in Texas and discuss the facts of the case with him. These cases are taken on a contingency basis and initial consultations are free.
Even if there was a surgical mishap if your daughter completely recovered from this episode there may be a question about whether the case is financially viable.
