Hernia is buldging of intestinal contents or organ through an abnormal opening or weakness in the abdominal wall.
The commonly seen hernia are Inguinal Hernia, Umbilical Hernia and Incisional Hernia.
The risk of Hernia becoming irreducible, Obstructed or strangulated is the main reason that once diagnosed, Hernia should be surgically repaired. Occurrence of Hernia i.e. Congenital hernia in children is also very common.
Hernia can occur in men as well as in women at any age,

The defect in the abdominal wall is repaired using a prosthetic flat sheet of synthetic material called mesh.
Congenital Hernia in children can be repaired without mesh (Photo Surgical).
Hernia surgery can be performed Laparoscopically or by conventional open method.
We have an experience of deaths with large, recurrent, complicated and big hernia by Laparoscopy.
