Laparoscopic repair in double abdominal wall hernia

[lilkicker95]

If you guys didn't know that yellow stuff is fat not muscle. Just wanted to help people if needed

I'm one weeks out from my hernia surgery and mine doesn't look right . It's too folded up , and very stiff around the area, like a rock underneath my skin. . Did yours change any or stay the same? Please let me know. Thanks. Alex

I' sure that evwrythig will be better.

I thin this is some of the best examples of showing us (laymen) what a hernia is and how it is repaired. Your use of inside abdomen and outside the abdomen shots are great and allow us to see the cosmetic as well as the technical beauty of your operation. So many laparoscopic surgeons leave out the cosmetic shots of their work. It annoys me as a person who wants to see the results and determine if the work was worthy on the appearance levels.

I'm 20 years old.. I just found out I have a hernia.. I'm really scared... Should I get it surgically removed? I want to exercise and be fit and awesome but I think having this hernia will prevent that from happening... <:((

@ZorzVascSurg v Thank you so mutch

Had this done 2 days ago Still in a bit of pain but i think they did a verry good job :D

[Ladyhawkwright]

I have developed small bowel collapse due to a double hernia and may need this surgery as well. My belly looks swollen like the first pics. I have been exercising and noticed belly getting bigger instead of smaller with much pain and suffering.

[ZorzVascSurg]

It could be. You must have an ultrasound exam to know the real nature of your observation. Good luck.

What do they do with all that fatty tissue stuff that they ripped off from the abdo wall? Do they just leave it in the stomach? What about the mesh? Does that stay in there too?

[ZorzVascSurg]

It's not an alien! It's normal omental fat that will placed in abdonen, it's natural position. The mesh is placed in intraperitoneal position to close the defect

[unklduc]

I wish there was sound...so you could hear what type of mesh was being used. Or perhaps what type of suture that was? What was used as the local? How hard was it to control hemostasis?

It's a very nice picture and walks you through the surgery beautifully!

Thank you for posting this!

I used a PeoceedTM partial absorbable mesh by J&J medical. It was fixed by Poly Lactic Acid Taks complitely absorbale (Easy TackTM) Davol Bard,the hemostasis was obtained with bipolar coagulator, very easy, the dissection was made by Harmonic Ace J&J Medical. Three 10-12 mm Bladeless ports were used 2 J&J, and one Covidien

I'm having this umbilical hernia repair surgery with mesh I think next week and i'm scared, if its a laparoscopic can it be with a mesh too? or only if its the regular cut? because I dont want a big scar:(

[ZorzVascSurg]

It's related to the size of defect. From 1 to 3 cm an open anterior mesh repair is commonly done. Starting from 4 cm in size  a laparoscopic repair is preferred.

Seems that I will need this procedure very soon:)
