What is
Hernia?
A hernia is the abnormal exit of tissue or an organ
occurs when an organ pushes through an initial in the muscle or tissue that
grasps it in place such asthe intestines may break through a weakened area in
the abdominal wall.
An inguinal hernia is a kind of Hernia that disturbs the groin or scrotum. Typically this
kind of hernia happens when tissue pushes through a weak abdominal muscle wall.
This can occur in childhood or adulthood. Symptoms comprise pain, a heavy
feeling in the hernia area, and more. Hernia surgery is the best treatment.
Inguinal Hernia Surgery
Surgery is the only option that is always suggested for all inguinal
hernias to avoid complications such as strangulation, in which a loop of
intestine becomes tightly surrounded in a hernia, blocking off the blood stream
to that portion of the intestine. If a hernia in an adult can be pushed back
(reduced), surgery can be done at the person`s convenience. If it cannot be
pushed back, surgery must be done rather.
There are two types of surgeries
performed to repair inguinal hernias:
1. Open inguinal hernia repair (herniorrhaphy, hernioplasty)
2. Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair
Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair
Laparoscopic hernia surgery is parallel to other laparoscopic processes.
General anesthesia is given, and a small cut (incision) is made in or just
below the navel. The abdomen is inflated with air so that the surgeon can see
the abdominal (belly) organs.
