Open Surgical Repair

Open surgical repair is a procedure where a surgeon makes an incision to directly access and treat an affected area, such as repairing a damaged blood vessel, hernia, or organ. The surgeon carefully exposes the problem site, removes or repairs the damaged tissue, and then closes the incision securely. This approach allows for precise work and is often used when less invasive procedures are not suitable. It generally involves general anesthesia, a surgical team, and a recovery period, typically longer than minimally invasive options, but provides a direct and effective way to address various medical conditions.
