  1. The Fundamentals of Hernias - Corrective Hernia Surgery Procedures

  2. Corrective hernia surgery procedures are usually performed on patients who are suffering from a painful hernia. It is also called as herniorrhaphy or hernioplasty depending on the type of repair that is being done. A hernia usually does not go away without surgery. Luckily we have expert & experienced surgeons Like Dr Aparna Govil Bhasker from Mumbai as she is one expert in hernia treatment in mumbai , Who makes our lifes much easier. • What is a hernia? A patient is said to be suffering from a hernia when an organ or tissue protrudes though the muscle wall that holds it. This usually occurs in the abdominal wall and it is the intestine or omental fat that pushes its way through the muscles causing pain and discomfort. Inguinal or groin hernias are the most common.

  3. About 27% of men and 3% of women suffer from inguinal hernia at some point of their lives. Other types of hernia requiring corrective hernia operations are: • Femoral hernia which affects the thigh or the outer groin area • Ventral hernia occurs around the bellybutton area • Hiatal hernia is a condition in which the stomach pushes into the chest through the hiatus and create problems with esophagus. • Corrective hernia surgery procedures • There is no medical treatment for a hernia. A hernia has to be treated surgically. Hernia repair usually includes placement of a fine mesh to cover the tear in muscles. This reduces the tension on the tissues and gives a support to the weakened tissue to regrow. Mesh repair has a lower chance of recurrence of hernia. • The options for hernia repair using surgical methods are:

  4. Open hernia surgery • This type of tissue repair surgery is the oldest method of corrective hernia surgery. In this method a cut or an open incision is made in the abdomen by the surgeon to view or repair the hernia. Stitches are then placed to hold the tissues in place. Nowadays, most hernias are repaired through the laparoscopic approach, however, sometimes open surgery may be the only way to repair a large hernia. • Laparoscopic or minimally invasive hernia repair surgery • This type of corrective hernia repair is done using specialized tools that reduce the incisions and recovery time. Surgeon operates through tiny incisions through which a camera and other instruments are inserted. A mesh may be used to fortify the tissues. • Robotic hernia repair • This is also a type of laparoscopic surgery but it is done with the help of robotic surgical instruments which the surgeon controls from the console. This has the advantage of excellent 3-D images for more precision repair.

  5. Many hernia repair procedures are day-care surgery procedures and the patient can go home the same day. However, it is important that the patient does not over do with physical activity for a few weeks post the operation. Talk to your surgeon about which type of surgery will suit you.
