Advanced Umbilical Hernia Surgery – Dr. K. K. Trehan
Umbilical Hernia is a common condition in which tissue or part of the intestine protrudes through a weak spot near the belly button. Dr. K. K. Trehan provides advanced laparoscopic and robotic umbilical hernia surgery with minimally invasive techniques that ensure safe treatment, less pain, and faster recovery.
What is Umbilical Hernia?
An umbilical hernia occurs when part of the intestine or abdominal tissue pushes through a weak area in the muscles near the navel (belly button). It usually appears as a soft bulge around the belly button that may become more noticeable while coughing, standing, or straining.
Symptoms of Umbilical Hernia
Common symptoms include swelling or bulge near the belly button, abdominal discomfort, pain during lifting or coughing, pressure around the navel, and tenderness in the affected area. In severe cases, sudden pain and swelling may require immediate medical care.
Causes and Risk Factors
Umbilical hernia may develop due to weak abdominal muscles, obesity, pregnancy, heavy lifting, chronic cough, fluid accumulation in the abdomen, or previous abdominal surgeries. It can affect both adults and children.
Types of Umbilical Hernia Surgery
Treatment depends on the size and condition of the hernia. Open hernia repair involves making an incision near the affected area and strengthening the abdominal wall with mesh support. Laparoscopic surgery uses small incisions and a camera for minimal pain and quicker healing. Robotic hernia surgery offers enhanced precision, smaller scars, and faster recovery.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
Laparoscopic and robotic hernia surgery provide several advantages including smaller incisions, minimal pain, less scarring, shorter hospital stay, reduced risk of infection, and quicker return to normal activities.
Who Needs Umbilical Hernia Surgery?
Surgery is recommended for patients experiencing persistent swelling, pain, increasing hernia size, discomfort during daily activities, or risk of complications such as strangulation. Early treatment helps prevent serious health issues.
