~ All kind of hernia can now be treated using laparoscopy ~

INGUINAL HERNIA

In this part of intestine, fat etc. protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles in inguinal region. It may disappear or reduce in size on lying down and reappear on doing work.

Symptoms

Swelling in groin area which becomes more obvious in standing position, especially on coughing
A burning or aching sensation
Dragging sensation
Inguinal hernias can be seen in new-borns and children.

Complications

Incarcerated hernia - If the contents of the hernia become trapped, it can cause obstruction of the bowel, leading to severe pain, nausea, vomiting, etc. It may cause inability to pass flatus.
In extreme cases, blood flow to part of intestine gets cut off leading to death of that area. Intestine may get a hole here leading to spread of dirty fluid all inside abdomen. This is a life-threatening condition and requires immediate surgery.

Treatment

A very small hernia that is not causing any trouble may be left untreated but under watchful eyes.

Enlarging or painful hernias usually require surgery to relieve discomfort and prevent serious complications.

Ventral Hernias – Umbilical Hernia, Epigastric hernia, incisional hernia

Umbilical hernia

Our umbilical cord passes through umbilicus before birth and this leaves a potentially weak area here. These are most common in infants, but they can be seen in adults as well.

Children’s umbilical hernias often close on their own in the first two years of life. Umbilical hernias in adults are more likely to need surgery.

Incisional Hernia

This occurs from the weakness caused by cut of previous surgery. It is much more common after open surgery as compared to laparoscopic surgery.

Epigastric hernia – It is seen above the level of umbilicus

Suprapubic hernia – This is seen below the level of umbilicus

Symptoms

A bulge at navel which becomes worse when baby cries is the most common symptom in kids.

In adults, one may feel a hollow at umbilicus or at other places on abdomen (excluding groin which is called inguinal hernia).  A bulge may be seen or felt there that becomes worse on coughing. In later stages bulge may just stay there all the time and may cause pain.

Treatment

Most umbilical hernias in babies close on their own by age 1 or 2.

Children may require surgery if hernias:

Are painful
Are slightly larger than 1 to 2 centimeters in diameter
Are large and don’t decrease in size over the first two years of life
Don’t disappear by the age of four years
Become trapped or block the intestine
For adults, surgery is typically recommended soon after diagnosis to avoid possible complications.
