Inguinal Hernia Repair

When the lower abdominal muscles become weak, it can result in an inguinal hernia.  The formation of this hernia can be dangerous due to its tendency to keep getting bigger. Because of this, intestines can get confined inside this bulge losing their supply of blood. Such a condition is called a strangulated inguinal hernia and this problem can only be corrected with the help of surgery. Inguinal hernias may form either on one side of the body or on both sides.  The ultimate treatment of inguinal hernia is through surgical repair.

Umbilical Hernia Repairs

An umbilical hernia is defined by the classification of the European Hernia Society as a hernia that is present three centimeters above to three centimeters under the umbilicus. An umbilical hernia is said to be the second most frequently present type of hernia in adults after inguinal hernia.  Umbilical hernia can occur in people having chronic distention of the wall of the abdomen accompanied by increased intra-abdominal pressure such as in pregnant women, or in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis or with ascites.

Technology

Umbilical hernia surgery is typically performed using laparoscopic surgery, which is a minimally invasive type of surgery. The surgeon will make a small incision in the navel area and insert a small camera, called a laparoscope, into the incision. They will then repair the hernia by stitching it closed.

Appendectomy

The surgical process through which an appendix is removed is known as appendectomy. Usually, the surgical removal of an appendix is carried out when there is an emergency to manage an inflamed appendix. Appendectomy comes among the most common surgeries performed in the United States to manage acute appendicitis.

Technology

The technology used for appendectomy is called laparoscopic surgery. This is a minimally invasive surgery that is used to remove the appendix. The surgery is done through small incisions in the abdomen and the appendix is removed through a small tube.

Cholecystectomy

Cholecystectomy is the removal of the gallbladder that is among the most popularly performed surgical techniques in the US and every year, almost 1.2 million surgical removals of the gallbladder are performed. The gold standard for cholecystectomy was the open technique before 1991 that included carrying out a cholangiogram intraoperatively. After this procedure, patients usually had to spend two to six days at the hospital. However, by the late 1980s, after the arrival of laparoscopic techniques and surgeries, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the gold standard approach.

Mastectomy

Mastectomy can be defined as partial or complete removal of breast mass. It is a treatment option for breast cancer as well as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormonal therapy, etc.  The position and size of the tumor, the outcomes of your laboratory examinations, and if cancer has spread to other regions of your body are just a few of the variables that will determine what’s best for you. Your healthcare professional will adjust your treatment plan to meet your specific requirements. Taking a combination treatment is also common among many breast cancer women.
