Hernia Treatments at LVR Multispeciality Hospital

A hernia occurs when an internal organ, intestine, or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Most hernias appear in the abdominal wall, and in many cases, may present as a visible or palpable bulge—especially when coughing, straining, or lifting heavy objects. At LVR Multispeciality Hospital, Dr. Sharath Kumar.D leads a team of experienced surgeons specializing in advanced hernia management, using the latest techniques for safe, effective, and lasting repair.

Types of Hernias Treated:

• Inguinal Hernia – Most common, found in the groin
• Femoral Hernia – Located near the thigh, more common in women
• Umbilical Hernia – Appears around the belly button
• Ventral Hernia – Occurs in the abdominal wall
• Incisional Hernia – Develops at the site of a previous surgery
• Giant Abdominal Hernia – Large hernias that often require complex repair
• Recurrent Hernia – Hernias that return after previous surgery
• Parastomal Hernia – Develops near a stoma (e.g., colostomy site)

Treatment Options:

• Non-Surgical Management: In select cases where the hernia is small and asymptomatic, your surgeon may monitor the condition regularly to ensure it does not progress or cause complications.

Surgical Treatment Methods:

1. Laparoscopic Hernia Repair

• Minimally invasive
• Multiple small incisions
• Quicker recovery, less pain, and smaller scars
• Can be performed with or without surgical mesh

2. Open Hernia Repair

• A traditional approach involving a single incision near the hernia site
• Repair with or without mesh, depending on the type and size of hernia
• Suitable for complex or large hernias

Advanced Surgical Techniques Offered at LVR:

• TAP (Transabdominal Preperitoneal Repair)
• TEP (Totally Extraperitoneal Repair)
• ETEP (Extended TEP) – For larger or recurrent hernias
• TAR (Transversus Abdominis Release) – For complex abdominal wall reconstruction
