About this Procedure
Laparoscopic hernia repair is keyhole surgery to repair a hernia, where tissue or part of the bowel pushes through a weak spot in the muscle wall. For an inguinal hernia, which appears as a swelling or lump in the groin, the NHS explains that the surgeon makes a few small cuts near the belly button and lower tummy, inserts a thin tube with a camera (a laparoscope), pushes the hernia back into place and fixes a thin sheet of mesh over the weak area.
Hernia repair may be recommended to relieve pain or discomfort and to prevent complications, such as the hernia causing a blocked bowel or cutting off the blood supply to trapped tissue (a strangulated hernia). A hernia that is not causing symptoms may not always need treatment, so your surgeon will advise whether and when to operate.
The operation is usually done under general anaesthetic. According to the NHS, inguinal hernia repair usually takes between 30 and 90 minutes and you can usually go home the same day. After keyhole surgery you may have bloating or shoulder pain for a couple of days from the gas used during the operation. Recovery usually takes up to 4 to 6 weeks, and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least 4 to 6 weeks.
