What is Hernia Surgery?
Types of Hernias Treated:
Inguinal Hernia: An inguinal hernia occurs in the groin area and is more common in men. It happens when a portion of the intestine or bladder protrudes through the abdominal wall or into the inguinal canal.
Femoral Hernia: Femoral hernias are less common and occur just below the inguinal ligament, more frequently in women. This type of hernia involves the intestines pushing through the femoral canal.
Umbilical Hernia: Umbilical hernias occur near the belly button when part of the intestine protrudes through the abdominal wall. This type of hernia can affect both infants and adults.
Incisional Hernia: This type of hernia can occur at the site of a previous surgical incision when the abdominal muscles weaken, allowing tissue or organs to protrude.
Hiatal Hernia: Hiatal hernias occur when part of the stomach pushes up through the diaphragm into the chest cavity. This type often requires specific surgical techniques due to its location.
Procedure Options:
Open Hernia Repair: Traditional open hernia repair involves making a larger incision to directly access and repair the hernia. This method allows the surgeon to use sutures or mesh to reinforce the abdominal wall.
Laparoscopic Hernia Repair: Laparoscopic hernia repair is a minimally invasive technique that uses small incisions, a laparoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera), and specialized instruments. This approach typically results in less pain, smaller scars, and a quicker recovery time compared to open surgery.
TAPP Surgery (Transabdominal Preperitoneal): TAPP surgery involves accessing the hernia through the abdominal cavity and repairing it from the inside using laparoscopic techniques. This method is effective for certain types of hernias and offers the benefits of minimally invasive surgery.
TEP Surgery (Totally Extraperitoneal): TEP surgery repairs the hernia without entering the abdominal cavity, which can reduce the risk of complications. This laparoscopic technique is particularly useful for inguinal hernias.
