A Laparoscopic Hernia Repair is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat hernias. They may occur when an organ or fatty tissue protrudes through a weak spot or opening in the abdominal wall. During the procedure, small incisions are made in the abdomen. A laparoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) and surgical instruments are inserted to repair the hernia using mesh or sutures to reinforce the weakened area.
Medical conditions that can be treated through Laparoscopic Hernia Repair include inguinal hernia (develops in the groin area), ventral hernia (develops in the abdominal wall), and incisional hernia (develops at the site of previous insertion).
The recovery process after a Laparoscopic Hernia Repair is generally quick and less painful compared to traditional open surgery. Most patients can go home the same day or after a short hospital stay. Some discomfort at the incision sites after the procedure is common. However, this resolves within a few days. Full recovery typically takes about 1 to 2 weeks, during which patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting and follow post-operative instructions. Most patients can resume normal activities and return to work within a few weeks after the procedure.
