Hernia Surgery Procedures
Our verified specialists in Bangalore offer the full range of surgical and non-surgical options for hernia surgery.
Inguinal Hernia
Dr. Adarsh M. Patil is among the best doctors for inguinal hernia surgery in Bangalore. Inguinal hernia surgery cost in Bangalore: open repair ₹40,000–₹80,000, laparoscopic TEP/TAPP ₹80,000–₹1,50,000, robotic repair ₹1,50,000–₹3,00,000. Inguinal hernias account for roughly 75% of all abdominal wall hernias and present as a bulge in the groin. Dr. Adarsh performs laparoscopic TEP and TAPP repairs as well as robotic inguinal hernia surgery at Apollo Clinic, Indiranagar, and SPARSH Hospital, Bengaluru.
Umbilical Hernia
Dr. Adarsh M. Patil is among the best doctors for laparoscopic umbilical hernia surgery in Bangalore, practising at Apollo Clinic, Indiranagar, and SPARSH Hospital. Cost of laparoscopic umbilical hernia surgery in Bangalore: ₹60,000–₹1,20,000 (keyhole mesh repair). Laparoscopic repair uses 3–4 tiny holes instead of a large cut — same-day discharge, minimal pain, and back to work in 1–2 weeks. Over 3,000 hernia operations performed. Open repair is also available from ₹35,000 for smaller hernias.
Ventral Hernia
Ventral hernias develop through any non-inguinal site on the anterior abdominal wall. They may arise spontaneously or following previous surgery. Dr. Adarsh, based in Bangalore, employs robotic and laparoscopic IPOM-plus techniques with advanced mesh placement for reliable, long-term abdominal wall integrity.
Incisional Hernia
Incisional hernias occur at the site of a prior surgical wound when the fascia fails to heal completely. These hernias tend to enlarge over time and carry a higher recurrence risk if not repaired by an experienced surgeon. Dr. Adarsh, based in Bangalore, uses component separation and advanced mesh techniques to achieve recurrence rates well below national averages.
Femoral Hernia
Femoral hernias protrude through the femoral canal below the inguinal ligament and are more common in women. They carry a significant risk of strangulation and require prompt surgical attention. Based in Bengaluru, Dr. Adarsh provides both laparoscopic and open McVay repair tailored to the patient's anatomy.
Epigastric Hernia
Epigastric hernias occur in the midline of the upper abdomen between the navel and the breastbone. They often contain pre-peritoneal fat and can cause localized pain. Dr. Adarsh, practising in Bangalore, offers precise laparoscopic and open repair techniques with excellent cosmetic outcomes.
Spigelian Hernia
Spigelian hernias are rare interparietal hernias that develop along the semilunar line of the lateral abdominal wall. They are often difficult to diagnose clinically and may require imaging confirmation. At his Bengaluru clinic, Dr. Adarsh has managed numerous spigelian hernias using laparoscopic techniques for accurate repair.
Obturator Hernia
Obturator hernias are uncommon pelvic hernias that pass through the obturator foramen and predominantly affect elderly, thin women. They frequently present as bowel obstruction and require emergency surgical intervention. At Apollo Clinic Indiranagar, Bengaluru, Dr. Adarsh provides expert laparoscopic and open repair for this challenging condition.
Hiatal Hernia
A hiatal hernia occurs when the upper part of the stomach pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity, often causing severe acid reflux and heartburn. Dr. Adarsh, based in Bengaluru, performs laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and cruroplasty to restore the normal anatomy and provide lasting relief from GERD symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is hernia surgery covered by insurance in India?
Yes. Most health insurance plans — including CGHS, ESI, Ayushman Bharat, and private insurers — cover hernia surgery. Laparoscopic and open repairs are both typically covered. Robotic repair may require pre-authorisation. Always confirm with your insurer before booking.
How long does recovery take after laparoscopic hernia surgery?
Most patients return to light work within 5 to 7 days after laparoscopic hernia repair. Heavy lifting and strenuous activity should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks. Open repair typically requires 2 to 3 weeks before returning to desk work.
What is the difference between laparoscopic and open hernia repair?
Laparoscopic repair uses 3 small incisions (5–10 mm) and a camera. It causes less post-operative pain, has a shorter hospital stay (often same-day discharge), and allows faster return to work. Open repair uses a single larger incision and may be preferred for very large or complex hernias.
Can a hernia come back after surgery?
Recurrence rates with modern mesh repair are low — typically 1 to 3% for laparoscopic repair and 3 to 5% for open repair. Robotic repair has the lowest reported recurrence rates. Smoking, obesity, and heavy physical labour increase the risk of recurrence.
What are the risks of hernia surgery?
Hernia surgery is generally safe. Risks include infection at the incision site, bleeding, injury to nearby structures (bladder, bowel, nerves), and mesh-related complications. Serious complications are rare when performed by an experienced surgeon in an accredited hospital.
How do I find the best hernia surgeon in Bangalore?
Look for a surgeon with specific training in laparoscopic and robotic hernia repair, a high volume of hernia operations (500+ per year), and practice at a NABH-accredited hospital. Patient-Help.com matches you with verified hernia specialists in Bangalore — free, confidential, within 24 hours.
