Advanced Laparoscopic Incisional & Ventral Hernia Repair in Bareilly | IPOM, IPOM-Plus & Preperitoneal Mesh Hernioplasty

Understanding Incisional and Ventral Hernias
Incisional hernias are a common type of ventral hernia that develop at or near a previous surgical incision site on the abdomen. They occur when the abdominal wall muscles, weakened by surgery, fail to heal completely, allowing abdominal contents (like intestines or fatty tissue) to protrude through the defect.

Ventral hernias can also occur spontaneously in other areas of the abdominal wall, such as umbilical hernias (near the navel) or epigastric hernias (above the navel).

These hernias can range in size from small to very large and can cause:

A visible bulge or swelling, especially when coughing, straining, or standing.
Pain or discomfort in the abdominal area.
Nausea, vomiting, or digestive issues.
In severe cases, incarceration (trapping of tissue) or strangulation (loss of blood supply to trapped tissue), requiring immediate medical attention.

If you suspect you have an incisional hernia or a ventral hernia in Bareilly, Dr. Om Kumar Sharma, an Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeon, offers specialized diagnosis and state-of-the-art repair options.

Advanced Laparoscopic Techniques for Incisional & Ventral Hernia Repair

Dr. Om Kumar Sharma specializes in minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques for incisional and ventral hernia repair, providing patients in Bareilly with effective solutions that lead to less pain, smaller scars, and quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery. His expertise encompasses the latest approaches:

Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh (IPOM) Repair: This is a widely adopted laparoscopic technique where the hernia defect is repaired by placing a specialized mesh inside the abdominal cavity, directly over the hernia opening. The mesh acts as a bridge, reinforcing the weakened abdominal wall. Dr. Sharma uses advanced coated meshes to minimize adhesion to internal organs, a key concern with intraperitoneal placement.
      Advantages of IPOM: Relatively straightforward technique, allows placement of a large mesh, minimal need for extensive dissection of tissues, and often a quicker operative time.
Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh Plus (IPOM-Plus) Repair: An evolution of the standard IPOM, IPOM-Plus incorporates additional steps to improve outcomes, particularly for larger or more complex defects. This often includes closing the hernia defect with sutures before placing the mesh, providing a primary repair of the weakened tissue in addition to the mesh reinforcement. This technique aims to reduce bulging and improve long-term stability.
      Advantages of IPOM-Plus: Offers enhanced abdominal wall reconstruction by closing the defect, potentially leading to better cosmetic results and reduced risk of seroma (fluid accumulation) compared to simple mesh bridging.
Laparoscopic Preperitoneal Mesh Hernioplasty: This advanced technique involves placing the mesh in the preperitoneal space, which is outside the abdominal cavity but behind the abdominal muscles (similar to TEP for inguinal hernias). This approach avoids direct contact of the mesh with the intestines, significantly reducing the risk of adhesions and chronic pain sometimes associated with intraperitoneal mesh placement. It requires a higher level of laparoscopic skill and dissection.
      Advantages of Preperitoneal Mesh Hernioplasty: Minimizes mesh contact with viscera, potentially leading to lower rates of adhesions and chronic pain. Offers a robust repair by placing the mesh in a more anatomical plane.

All these laparoscopic approaches utilize small incisions, through which a camera (laparoscope) and specialized instruments are inserted to perform the repair with precision and accuracy.
