A Hernia is not a disease it’s just a small defect that can be fixed with surgery. It is a bulging of inside layers of abdominal walls when weakened. It occurs because of natural weakening of abdominal walls due to constant coughing, heavy lifting or difficulty with bowel movement and urination. The repair of inguinal hernia is one of the most common operations performed in the world. A hernia is usually treated with surgery and there are three main types of surgery open hernia repair, laparoscopic repair, and robotic repair. The treatment of hernia has evolved at a great pace from pure tissue repair to laparoscopic repair.
Laparoscopic surgery:
A thin telescope-like instrument is inserted through a small incision at the belly button. The inner lining of the abdomen is cut to expose the weakness in the abdominal wall and mesh is placed on the inside to cover the defects available in the abdominal wall and strengthen the tissue.
The whole process is painless and is performed in the influence of anesthesia. The laparoscope is connected to a tiny camera that gives a complete glimpse of internal structures. The abdomen is also inflated with a harmless gas to create a space to allow your doctors to have a clear view of internal organs. Laparoscopy is the best way to treat hernia as it includes only three tiny scars, comparatively less pain, and faster recovery.
Dr. Arun Bhardwaj is the best surgeon in India to perform hernia surgery. He is extensively trained in advanced hernia skills and abdominal wall reconstruction.
