A hernia occurs when organs of the abdominal cavity (most commonly part of the intestine) push through a weakened area in the abdominal wall. It most commonly occurs in the groin (inguinal hernia), at the navel (umbilical hernia), or at the site of previous surgical incisions (incisional hernia).
Symptoms: Visible bulge in the groin or abdominal area, pain or burning in the affected area, feeling of heaviness, worsening during physical exertion or coughing.
Modern minimally invasive method performed through 3 small incisions (5-10 mm). Camera and specialized instruments allow precise performance with minimal tissue damage.
Classic method performed through a single larger incision in the groin or hernia area. Suitable for large or complicated hernias.
We use only top-quality synthetic mesh from renowned manufacturers (Ethicon, Medtronic, Bard), which significantly reduces the risk of hernia recurrence.
Consultation with surgeon, examination, ECG, blood tests. Evaluation of hernia type and selection of appropriate surgical method.
Arrival at clinic on an empty stomach. Surgery under general or spinal anesthesia takes 45-90 minutes. Post-operative monitoring in recovery room.
Day surgery - discharge the same day in the evening or the next morning depending on patient condition.
Wound check after 7-10 days. Sick leave 1-3 weeks depending on work type. Avoid heavy physical exertion for 4-6 weeks.
Hernia surgery is a safe procedure, but like any surgery it can have risks:
An untreated hernia will not heal on its own and can lead to serious complications (strangulation, bowel gangrene). We recommend early surgery.
