Inguinal Hernia Treatment

Inguinal HerniaLaparoscopic hernioplasty, a minimally invasive procedure, is performed through three small incisions in the area of the navel, and an endoscope with a miniature video camera is inserted into the abdominal cavity, allowing the internal organs to be displayed on a video screen during the operation. After identifying the inguinal hernia, surgeons separate it from the surrounding tissues and subsequently reduce it into the abdominal cavity. The defect in the abdominal wall muscles is closed using a special mesh.

The advantage of laparoscopic hernioplasty is the good cosmetic effect and shorter recovery period.

Surgical removal of hernias at Top Ichilov is also performed using the traditional method under local anesthesia. The surgeons isolate the hernia sac from the surrounding tissues, remove the hernia, and stitch the inguinal opening.

The choice of surgical treatment method depends on the patient's age and overall condition.

Diagnosis of Inguinal Hernias

Inguinal hernias are a common defect of the abdominal wall. Inguinal hernias can occur at any age. Inguinal hernias in children arise due to a weak anterior abdominal wall and the anatomical features of the inguinal region.

There are direct and indirect inguinal hernias, which are divided into congenital and acquired; combined inguinal hernias, peringuinal, encysted, preperitoneal, intramural, indirect hernias with a direct canal, supravesical; as well as large hernias, sliding, irreducible, recurrent, and multiple recurrent inguinal hernias.

During the diagnostic examination, surgeons conduct a detailed examination of the inguinal area, perform an ultrasound of the abdominal wall, and determine the possibility of reducing the hernia and the size of the hernial protrusion.
