Hernia Repair Techniques

Hernia repair techniques involve repositioning the bulging tissue or organ back into the abdominal cavity and strengthening the weakened muscle wall. The most common method is open surgery, where a surgeon makes an incision to access the hernia and may reinforce the area with stitches or a synthetic mesh for added stability. Laparoscopic surgery uses small incisions and a camera to perform the repair minimally invasively. The choice of technique depends on the hernia type, size, and patient health, aiming to reduce recurrence risk and promote effective healing.
