Types of Hernia Surgery:

Open Hernia Repair:
- Traditional approach involving a single, larger incision over the hernia site.
- The protruding tissue is pushed back into place, and the weakened area is reinforced with stitches or mesh.
Laparoscopic Hernia Repair:
- Minimally invasive procedure using several small incisions and a laparoscope (camera).
- Mesh is often used to reinforce the weakened area.
- Shorter recovery time and reduced postoperative pain compared to open surgery.
Robotic Hernia Repair:
- Similar to laparoscopic surgery but employs robotic assistance for increased precision.
- Offers advantages in terms of visualization and maneuverability.

Types of Hernias Treated:

Inguinal Hernia: Commonly occurring in the groin area.
Hiatal Hernia: Involving the upper stomach protruding into the chest through the diaphragm.
Femoral Hernia: Located in the upper thigh or groin.
Incisional Hernia: Developing at the site of a previous surgical incision.
Umbilical Hernia: Occurring near the navel.

Procedure Overview:

Anesthesia: Either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation may be used.
Incision: Depending on the approach (open or laparoscopic), incisions are made to access the hernia site.
Hernia Reduction: Protruding tissue is returned to its normal position.
Mesh Placement: In many cases, a mesh is used to reinforce and strengthen the weakened area.
Closure: Incisions are closed with stitches or staples.

Recovery:

Postoperative Care: Pain management and instructions on caring for the incision site.
Activity Restrictions: Gradual return to normal activities based on the surgeon’s recommendations.
Follow-up: Regular follow-up appointments to monitor recovery and address any concerns.
