Hernia repair surgery

Hernia repair surgery is a medical procedure performed to correct a hernia—a condition where an organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. The most common types of hernias occur in the abdominal wall, and surgery is often necessary to repair them.
There are different types of hernia repair surgeries, but the two main approaches are:

Open Hernia Repair:
Herniorrhaphy: In this procedure, the surgeon makes an incision directly over the hernia and pushes the protruding tissue back into place. The weakened muscle or connective tissue is then stitched together to strengthen the area.
Hernioplasty: Instead of stitching the muscle or tissue, this method involves reinforcing the weakened area with a synthetic mesh. This helps to reduce the risk of the hernia recurring.

Laparoscopic Hernia Repair:
In laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon makes several small incisions and uses a laparoscope (a thin tube with a camera) to visualize the hernia. The surgeon then repairs the hernia using small instruments and may use a synthetic mesh to reinforce the area.
Laparoscopic surgery is less invasive than open surgery, often resulting in a quicker recovery time and less postoperative pain. However, not all hernias are suitable for laparoscopic repair, and the decision depends on factors such as the size and location of the hernia.

After hernia repair surgery, patients are typically advised to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities during the initial recovery period. The recovery time can vary depending on the type of surgery, the patient’s overall health, and other individual factors.

Cost of hernia repair surgery in Germany

The costs of hernia repair surgery in Germany can range between €7.500 and €14.563
