Overview of Ventral Hernia

A ventral hernia occurs when tissue or an organ pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. These hernias typically develop in the front of the abdominal wall and may enlarge over time if left untreated.

Surgical repair is usually recommended to prevent complications such as bowel obstruction or strangulation.

Diagnosis of Ventral Hernia

Diagnosis typically involves physical examination and imaging studies such as ultrasound or CT scan to confirm the size and location of the hernia.

Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair

Many ventral hernias can be repaired using minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. This technique uses small incisions and specialized instruments to repair the hernia defect.

  • Reduced postoperative pain
