Ferrari's technical director Pat Fry was missing from the pitwall this weekend in Barcelona.
Spain's El Mundo Deportivo reported that the Briton was taken to a hospital in the city on Saturday after suffering from pain.
Ferrari hopes the 49-year-old, initially diagnosed with kidney stones, makes a "rapid recovery".
Fry was actually diagnosed with appendicitis, and team boss Stefano Domenicali said he underwent an appendectomy late on Saturday.
"We wish him all the best for a rapid recovery," said the Italian.
The Sapa-AFP news agency said Fry will not return to work in Barcelona, but the Finnish broadcaster MTV3 said he is expected to return in time for Monaco in two weeks.
"It's important that he is back on his feet soon," Domenicali is quoted by Speed Week.
"We had to change our structure a little bit, but that is secondary," he insisted.
