Hernia repair is a surgical procedure designed to correct a hernia, a condition where an internal organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall or surrounding muscles. Hernias can occur in various locations, including the inguinal (groin), femoral, umbilical, or incisional regions. Symptoms often include pain, swelling, or a noticeable bulge at the site of the hernia. In some cases, hernias can lead to complications such as incarceration or strangulation, which require immediate medical attention.
The repair of a hernia can be performed through traditional open surgery or minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques. The choice of method depends on factors such as the hernia’s location, size, and the patient’s overall health. During the procedure, the surgeon will push the protruding tissue back into place and reinforce the weakened area with sutures or a synthetic mesh to prevent recurrence. Postoperative recovery typically involves a period of rest and gradual return to normal activities. Most patients experience significant improvement and can return to their regular routines with minimal risk of recurrence.
