Understanding Hernias
Hernias can be caused by a combination of muscle weakness and strain. Factors that might cause a hernia include age, chronic coughing, pregnancy, constipation, heavy lifting, or sudden weight gain. Symptoms may include a noticeable bulge, pain or discomfort in the affected area, especially when bending over, coughing, or lifting.
Our Hernia Repair Services
We offer a comprehensive range of hernia repair services tailored to meet the needs of our patients. Our treatments include both traditional open surgery and minimally invasive options, depending on the type and severity of the hernia, as well as the patient’s overall health and preference.
Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Hernia Repair
- Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair: A minimally invasive procedure using small incisions, a laparoscope, and surgical tools to repair the hernia with mesh.
- Laparoscopic Ventral and Umbilical Hernia Repair: This technique is used for repairing hernias in the abdominal wall using a laparoscope and mesh.
Open Hernia Repair
- Open Inguinal Hernia Repair: A traditional approach where the surgeon makes an incision in the groin area to push the protruding tissue back into place and then reinforces the area with stitches or mesh.
- Open Umbilical Hernia Repair: Involves an incision near the belly button to repair the hernia with or without the use of mesh.
Robotic-Assisted Hernia Repair
A cutting-edge approach that combines the benefits of minimally invasive surgery with enhanced precision and control, ideal for complex or recurrent hernias.
