Dr. Kishan A V – Specialist in Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair, Bengaluru

What is Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair?

Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat inguinal hernias, where abdominal contents protrude through a weak spot in the lower abdominal wall. This advanced approach uses small incisions, a laparoscope, and specialized instruments to repair the hernia and reinforce the abdominal wall with a surgical mesh.

How is the Procedure Performed?

The surgeon makes a few small incisions in the abdomen and inserts a laparoscope to visualize the hernia. Surgical instruments are used to place a mesh over the weak area, strengthening the abdominal wall and preventing recurrence. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, and most patients return home the same or next day.

Who Should Opt for Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair?

Patients with painful or recurrent inguinal hernias, bilateral hernias, or those who wish to resume daily activities quickly are good candidates for laparoscopic hernia repair. It is especially beneficial for individuals with recurrent hernias after open surgery.

Benefits of Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair

• Smaller incisions with minimal scarring.
• Less post-operative pain compared to open surgery.
• Reduced risk of infection and complications.
• Shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery.
• Faster return to normal activities and work.

Why Choose Laparoscopic Over Open Surgery?

Laparoscopic hernia repair offers significant advantages such as reduced pain, quicker healing, and minimal scarring. It is particularly effective for treating bilateral and recurrent hernias, allowing patients to recover faster and return to normal life with fewer complications.
