Ventral Hernia

Understanding Ventral Hernia

A ventral hernia occurs when a bulge of tissues or organs pushes through a gap in the muscles of the abdomen. This type of hernia can occur at any location on the abdominal wall and may be caused by weakness in the muscle due to previous surgeries, injuries, or congenital defects. Ventral hernias require medical attention to prevent complications such as obstruction or strangulation of the intestines.

Common Causes of Ventral Hernia

  • Previous Surgery: Surgical incisions can weaken the abdominal wall.
  • Injury: Trauma to the abdomen can create a weak spot.
  • Congenital Defects: Weakness in the abdominal wall present from birth.
  • Increased Abdominal Pressure: Obesity, heavy lifting, or chronic coughing.

Our Diagnostic Approach

  • Medical History and Physical Examination: Assessing symptoms and reviewing medical history.
  • Imaging Tests: Ultrasound, CT scans to determine the size and location of the hernia and to plan surgery.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Treatment plans are tailored to the size and severity of the hernia:

  • Watchful Waiting: For small, asymptomatic hernias.
  • Surgical Repair: Minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures and open surgery to repair the hernia and reinforce the abdominal wall based on the size and complexity of hernia.
