What is Robotic Hernia Repair?
A hernia is a medical disorder in which muscle tissues in an organ near the belly fail, allowing the intestine or tissues to protrude through weak places nearby. Although it can also happen in the upper thigh and groin regions, a hernia is most frequently discovered in the abdomen between the chest and hips. Numerous circumstances can lead to a hernia developing. Some of them are influenced by tobacco use, poor nutrition, persistent constipation, smoking, and other factors. Even while the majority of hernias are not life-threatening, some cases may necessitate surgery if they do not resolve on their own to prevent potentially fatal complications. Anyone of any age can get a hernia.
