How femoral hernia is removed by laparoscopic surgery

laparoscopic hernia surgery in Kolkata

 

What is laparoscopic surgery? – Listen to what a specialist of laparoscopic hernia surgery in Kolkata has to say:

 Laparoscopic surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. The surgeon makes small cuts for the surgery. Then he/she will place a tube with a tiny camera in it and will insert the tube into the incisions. Surgical tools are also inserted from those cuts. Laparoscopic surgery is safe and it hardly leaves a scar. The surgery has a record of faster recovery than open surgery.

 

Femoral hernia:

 A femoral hernia occurs when a little part of your bowel or fatty tissue pushes the groin of your inner thigh and hits a weak spot in the abdominal wall into the femoral canal. Many reasons can be the source of femoral hernia like, heavy lifting, childbirth, chronic coughing, being overweight, and chronic constipation. But the actual cause remains unknown in most cases. There might not be any symptom of the same. But if it’s a large hernia, a bulge can be noticed along with some discomfort. The severe ones produce abdominal pain, groin pain, vomiting, and nausea.

 

Laparoscopic surgery and femoral hernia:

 Femoral hernia can be repaired by laparoscopic surgery, says a hernia specialist in Kolkata. The procedure is safe as it produces a clear view, thus, even the undiagnosed femoral hernia is diagnosed and confirmed. The operation leaves less scar and the recovery rate is higher. In laparoscopic hernia surgery, mesh covers all the potential groin hernia defects i.e. direct, indirect, femoral and obturator spaces. This is really a great advantage of laparoscopy over open hernia surgery. Patients recover faster than open surgery. This type of surgery is recommended by most hernia surgeons as it is safer and less painful.
