Procedure  of laparoscopic hernia surgery:

A surgical procedure is performed under the influence of general anaesthesia. 

It involves the use of a laparoscope, which is a long flexible instrument that can be inserted inside the body by making a small incision near the belly button. 

Once the instrument is inside, it can be used for a detailed examination of the concerned area. 

A surgical camera that is used during the procedure helps to generate the images on an enlarged screen

The abdominal cavity is filled with carbon dioxide gas, to inflate it for better vision. 

This is followed by carefully cutting the peritoneum for exposing the underlying abdominal wall. 

A small mesh is then used to cover the defective part of the abdominal wall and prevent further protrusion.

Hernia is a medical situation where a part of the internal organs thrusts through the surrounding muscle or tissue. It can cause uneasiness, pain, and sometimes even life-threatening complications if left untreated. Luckily, hernia surgery is a common and effective way to treat this condition.
