Laparoscopic Hernia Repair

What Is a Hernia?

A hernia happens when an internal organ, usually part of the intestine, pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall. You may notice a bulge near your belly or groin, especially when coughing or lifting something heavy.

Laparoscopic hernia repair is a minimally invasive surgery that fixes this problem using small incisions and a surgical mesh — without large cuts or long hospital stays.

Signs You May Need Hernia Surgery

You should consult a doctor if you experience:

  • A visible bulge near the abdomen or groin
  • Pain or discomfort while standing, bending, or lifting
  • Heaviness or pressure in the belly
  • Swelling that doesn’t go away
  • Nausea or vomiting in severe cases

A hernia won’t heal on its own. In fact, it can get worse or even become dangerous if ignored.

How Laparoscopic Hernia Surgery Works

Here’s what to expect at A1 Laparoscopy Hospital:

  • First, you’ll receive general anesthesia to keep you comfortable.
  • Our surgeon makes 2–3 tiny cuts in your abdomen.
  • A camera (laparoscope) helps view and repair the hernia.
  • A surgical mesh is placed to strengthen the weak spot.
  • The cuts are closed with stitches or glue.

The entire surgery usually takes under one hour. Most patients return home the same or next day.
