Strangulated Hernia treatment
What is strangulated hernia?
When the inner layers of the abdominal wall weaken, a hernia forms, resulting in a bulge or rip. As the inner tube punctures the damaged tyre, the abdomen’s inner lining presses against the weakest part of the abdominal wall, generating a balloon-like sac. The intestine loops or the abdominal tissue rips as a result of this. Tissue weakening can be caused by a variety of factors, including natural weakness, heavy lifting, chronic coughing, and straining with bowel movements or urination.
This is a potentially fatal condition that can cause gangrene, cut off blood flow to the small intestine, and result in perforation. As a result, treatment for strangulated hernia is critical.
What are the advantages ofthis surgery?
The treatment uses small incisions, which take less time to heal and allow the patient to return to their normal routine fast.
What is Laparoscopic hernia repair?
The procedure for laparoscopically correcting a hernia is the same as for other laparoscopic procedures. The surgeon makes incisions through which a laparoscope (a laparoscope is a small instrument with a narrow tube that has a light source and camera at the end of the tube) is inserted, and the surgeon uses the Laparoscope’s video camera to locate the hernia; the hernia is then reduced with the help of surgical equipment through the other incisions made; and the incisions are then sealed using surgical glue or staples.
Depending on the severity of the hernia, the doctor may do an open procedure.
