Hernia is a bulging of an organ or tissue through an abnormal opening A hiatus hernia is a situation that occurs when the section of the stomach, and in some cases, the reduction part of the esophagus, pushes through the hiatus in the diaphragm into the chest cavity. When a hernia has appeared, it isn't very likely to solve alone. Moreover, not all hernias are suitable for laparoscopic repair. An untreated hernia may also put an excessive burden on nearby tissues.

Available treatments of Hernia
We treat a hernia with Open or Laparoscopic technique. We prefer laparoscopic therapies at our hospital. Apart from this, we use some other methods, but Mesh Repair is the most standard method to cure a hernia.
- Open Hernia Surgery: It is the typical method to treat the hernia patients. It requires spinal numbness. It is useful for reducible Hernia /obstructed Hernia.
- Laparoscopic Hernia Surgery: The technique has many benefits over the open hernia repair. It holds lower infection risk, long-term outcomes, and requires shorter recovery time.
- 3D Hernia Mesh Repair: It is done by using BARD mesh. The method is more popular because of the following features or advantages:
- The technique uses Three Dimensional, curved, sealed edge mesh and patient can go home on the same day or within 24 hours
- It is the minimally invasive technique with fast recovery.
- Relatively less painful with minor cuts
