Herniorrhaphy

Herniorrhaphy is a surgical operation to eliminate a hernia. A hernia is a protrusion of organs or tissues through a natural or pathological opening in muscle or fibrous tissue.

There are several types of herniorrhaphy:

1. Hernioplasty - plastic surgery of the hernial orifice using a synthetic mesh. This is the most common method of treating hernias today.

2. Herniotomy - opening the hernial sac and excision of excess tissue.

3. Herniectomy - complete excision of the hernial sac.

4. Autoplasty is the closing of the hernial orifice with the patient’s own tissues.

The goal of herniorrhaphy is to reduce the protrusion and strengthen the hernial orifice to prevent recurrence of the hernia. The operation is performed under general anesthesia.

Herniorrhaphy allows you to relieve the patient from discomfort, pain, and complications associated with the presence of a hernia. With timely surgical treatment, the results are usually very good.

Gerniorafia (Greek ἁρυολάφιον, ὁργια - deformation, rebirth; Greek. -Αφι- + -door̄ς, prefix with value. "Assemance" + adj. Αφεύρω - open; cut out; cut out) - this is surgical intervention and replacement of the affected tissue or organ, when it is necessary. When tissue in the body passes through a weak spot in the wall, it forms a pouch or button that can bulge outward, causing pain, discomfort, or possible infection. The surgeon can insert pieces of skin and material into the area where the wall has been weakened to create a strong support for the tissue that is outside the body. This is called hernioplasty. Typically, this process is performed on the stomach, but can also be performed on the back, chest, and other parts of the body.
