This procedure is very much like building a house:
Soil preparation | Opening the abdomen and checking the abdominal wall. Search thoroughly for all weak spots in the area. |
---|---|
Laying the foundation | The pubis periosteum provides an anchor for suture placement, supporting the entire structure of the abdominal wall. |
Setting up pillars | The running suture starts at the level of the pubis periosteum and go upwards to sew the muscle back together in an overlapping manner. |
Building walls | Uniting the muscular and fascial layers to reinforce this section of the abdominal wall. |
Building the roof | Strengthening the inguinal ring which is located at the entrance to the inguinal canal. This is to avoid recurrent hernia from happening due to an enlarged inguinal ring. |

The special features of our Integrative Hernioplasty:
- Low recurrence rate
- Very safe
- Small incision, fast recovery
Using state-of-the-art equipment, minimally invasive surgery can be accomplished through a much smaller incision, measuring 2~3cm, compared with the 5~10cm incision used in traditional surgery. Patients can, therefore, enjoy the following benefits:
- Reducing tissue damage and postoperative pain.
- Reducing the size of the incisions and damages to the nerves in the skin as well as near the surface of the skin; avoiding numbness in the epidermis after surgery.
- Preventing wound and genital swelling after surgery.
- Avoiding wound infection.
- Minimizing scars and bulging.
