HERNIA REPAIR SURGERY
A hernia is a weakness in the abdominal wall that enables internal body tissue to push into an unfavorable location. A weakening muscle, for instance, can allow a small piece of tissue, usually fat or intestine, to pass through. Under the skin, there will be a tissue bulge if you have a hernia. Medication cannot treat hernias; surgery is typically required. Open hernia repair, laparoscopic hernia repair, and robotic hernia repair are the three basic forms of hernia surgery. In an open hernia repair, a cut or incision is made in the groyne. The bulging intestine is located within the hernia "sac." In order to strengthen the abdominal wall, the surgeon next pulls the hernia back into the abdomen and inserts stitches or synthetic mesh. A laparoscope, a thin, telescope-like device that is introduced through a small incision at the umbilicus, is used in laparoscopic (minimally invasive) hernia repair. During this procedure, you won't experience any pain. Similar to laparoscopic surgery, robotic hernia repair utilizes a laparoscope and is carried out in the same way. Smaller hernias or weak spots can be treated with robotic surgery, and it is now possible to restore the abdominal wall.
