Hernia Surgery

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.

About Incisional Hernia

Incisional hernia occurs at the site of a previous surgical incision where the abdominal wall has weakened. It affects up to 20% of patients after abdominal surgery.
