Laparoscopic hernia repair (inguinal TAPP/TEP, ventral/incisional IPOM) in Lahore

What it is

A hernia happens when an organ or fatty tissue pushes through a weak area in the abdominal wall. Laparoscopic hernia repair is a keyhole operation that closes that weak area and holds it shut with surgical mesh.

How the procedure works

The surgeon makes a few small cuts, then uses a thin camera and fine instruments to reach the hernia from inside the abdomen. A mesh patch is placed over the defect and fixed in position, and the small cuts are closed with a stitch or two.

Benefits

Small cuts instead of one long incision
Less pain and a faster return to work
Mesh support that lowers the chance of the hernia coming back

Who it is for

This repair suits most adults with an inguinal, ventral or incisional hernia, including hernias present on both sides. Dr. Shehryar Niazi reviews your scan and general health before deciding whether the keyhole or open method fits you best.

Recovery

Most people go home the same day or the next morning and return to desk work within about a week. Heavy lifting and hard exercise are held back for a few weeks while the mesh and tissue settle into place.

Frequently asked questions

Is an inguinal hernia a serious surgery?

Inguinal hernia repair is a common and well-established operation that most patients tolerate well. It is done under anaesthesia and, with the keyhole method, most people go home the same day.

How long does pain last after inguinal hernia surgery?

Most soreness settles within a few days, and simple pain relief keeps it comfortable during that time. Mild tenderness around the small cuts can linger for a week or two as the area heals.

How do you recover after inguinal hernia surgery?

You start walking the same day, eat normally, and move back to light activity within a few days. Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise are held back for a few weeks until the repair feels solid.
