Open Hernia Repair Surgery
What is Open Hernia Repair Surgery?
Open hernia repair is a time-tested surgical method where the hernia bulge (from intestines or fat) is pushed back and the weak spot in the muscle wall is reinforced using a surgical mesh.
Unlike laparoscopic surgery, this is done via a single small incision directly over the hernia site, under local or spinal anaesthesia.

- Hernia increasing in sizeHernia increasing in size
- Not suitable for laparoscopic surgery due to previous operations, age, or other medical reasons
- Emergency cases like strangulated hernia or obstruction
What the Procedure Involves
- Small cut made at the site of hernia
- Hernia contents carefully pushed back into place
- Weak muscle area reinforced using a polypropylene mesh
- Wound closed with sutures or staples
- Usually done under spinal or local anaesthesia
