A hernia occurs when an internal organ or other body part protrudes through the wall of muscle or tissue that normally contains it. Most hernias occur within the abdominal cavity, between the chest and the hips. What is an inguinal hernia? An inguinal hernia occurs when the intestines or fat from the abdomen bulge through the lower abdominal wall into the inguinal, or groin, area. There are 2 types of inguinal hernias: 1} Indirect inguinal hernias: This hernia is caused by a birth defect in the abdominal wall that is congenital (present at birth). 2} Direct inguinal hernias: This hernia usually occurs in adult males most often caused by a weakness in the muscles of the abdominal wall that develops over time, or are due to straining or heavy lifting. Rare Hernia's and its Complications : Incarceration or strangulation of inguinal hernias is rare, but serious complications can develop if a hernia is left untreated. 1} Incarcerated hernia: Incarceration occurs when part of the fat or intestine from inside the abdomen gets stuck in the groin or scrotum and cannot go back into the abdomen. 2} Strangulated hernia: Strangulation can occur when an incarcerated hernia is not treated. The blood supply to the intestine can be cut off, causing “strangulation” of the intestine. This is a very serious condition. You should seek immediate medical attention if you suspect you have an incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia. How is an inguinal hernia diagnosed? An abdominal X-Ray or CT scan may be ordered to look for a hernia and determine if it is strangulated or incarcerated. How is an inguinal hernia repaired? Inguinal hernia repair is a common surgical procedure. Inguinal hernia surgery is also called herniorrhaphy or hernioplasty. There are 3 types of inguinal hernia repair: 1} Open hernia repair: A surgical procedure in which an incision, or cut, is made in the groin. The surgeon then pushes the hernia back into the abdomen and strengthens the abdominal wall with mesh and stitches. This surgery may be done under local anesthesia for the abdominal area, or general anesthesia in which you will be put to sleep. 2} Minimally invasive or laparoscopic hernia repair: A less invasive surgical procedure in which the surgeon makes small, half-inch cuts in the lower abdomen and inserts a laparoscope (a thin tube with a tiny video camera attached). The laparoscope sends images to a video monitor and the surgeon to repairs the hernia through the small incisions. 3} Robotic hernia repair: Like laparoscopic surgery, robotic surgery uses a laparoscope, and is performed in the same manner (small incisions, a tiny camera and projecting the inside of the abdomen onto television screens).
