What is Hernia?
A hernia is a protrusion in the abdomen or groin caused by a tear or weakness in the abdominal wall’s muscles or tendons. They are apparent and possibly grow in size over time. The condition produces little to no symptoms in most cases except for an apparent lump or bumps under the skin. Further symptoms depend on the exact location of the hernia and how it has come about. Hernias are not usually a serious condition, but they require surgical treatment to be repaired. A hernia that produces little to no symptoms today is always at risk of becoming troublesome in the future due to the lack of self-repair.
According to Dr. Samrat Jankar, a renowned hernia specialist in Pune, a hernia develops when pressure pulls an organ or tissue out via an opening or a weak muscle in a patient’s fascia. This weak region could be present from birth or develop later in life.
Any pressure in the abdomen can cause a hernia, which can occur in the following situations:
- Chronic sneezing or coughing
- Diarrhea and constipation
- Lifting heavy objects without sufficient abdominal muscle support
- Other factors that might cause weak muscles and hernias include smoking, obesity, lack of a nutritious diet, etc.
What are the Types of Hernias?
A hernia can occur anywhere in the abdomen region. Patients will normally notice a lump, or discomfort, at the site of the hernia. The most common types of hernia are:
- Inguinal hernia – when tissue (usually part of the intestines) pokes through your lower abdomen.
- Femoral hernia – when tissue pokes through into your groin, or the top of your inner thigh.
- Incisional hernia – when tissue pokes through a surgical wound or incision that has not fully healed.
- Umbilical/Paraumbilical hernias – when tissue pokes through the part of the abdomen directly through or immediately around the navel (belly button)
- Epigastric Hernia- when tissue pokes through into the upper part of the abdomen
- Spigelian hernia This is a rare type of hernia that appears on the edge of one of the rectus abdominis muscles (these muscles are described as the “six-pack” which are readily seen in athletic individuals) 4 or 5 cm below the “belly button”.

Hernia Treatment in Pune:
Hernia cannot cure by any other method, Hernia treatment is only done by the surgical method. Dr. Samrat Jankar one of the best surgical gastroenterologists in Pune decides the method of surgery based on the type of hernia, its location, and size. At Kaizen Gastro Care a range of treatments is available. All have their potential benefits which your consultant will discuss with you. Dr. Samrat Jankar, the hernia specialist in Pune, has performed 1000+ hernia repair surgeries through laparoscopy, the most preferred and advanced surgical method. Let’s see one by one
- Open hernia surgery: In some cases, open surgery may be required, which means a bigger incision will be made, enabling the surgeon to access the affected area and carry out any necessary repairs. Open hernia surgery can sometimes be performed with either general or local anesthetic (this will be discussed and agreed upon in advance). Recovery times are generally slightly longer with open surgery, and you may need to stay in the hospital for an additional night.
- Laparoscopic hernia repair: This means several small (keyhole) incisions will be made. Dr. Samrat Jankar renowned as a Hernia Specialist doctor will use a laparoscope (a thin tube with a light and camera at the end) to repair the hernia and, if necessary, the associated muscle. Laparoscopic hernia surgery is carried out under general anesthetic. However, scarring and recovery times are generally considerably reduced compared with open surgery. He is an experienced laparoscopic hernia repair specialist in Pune and performed more than 2000+ laparoscopic Hernia repair surgery.
- TEP (Total extraperitoneal preperitoneal repair): During the TEP surgery, the surgeon will seal the hernia using a mesh from outside the peritoneum, a thin membrane surrounding the organs in the belly, rather than entering the peritoneal cavity.
- TAPP (Transabdominal preperitoneal repair): During this procedure, the surgeon enters the peritoneal cavity through three small incisions on the abdomen and inserts a mesh into the peritoneal cavity to cover the hernia location.
- Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair: A protrusion on the abdomen caused by an opening in the muscles is known as a ventral hernia. Surgery, either open or laparoscopic, is a simple way to treat it. Dr. Samrat Jankar is renowned for his proficiency in laparoscopic surgery in Pune. He has successfully carried out hundreds of surgeries. He does laparoscopic ventral hernia repair using the following techniques
Which of the above procedures would be a better option for hernia Treatment?
Different type of surgery is available for hernia treatment and it’s having their advantages and disadvantages. At Kaizen Gastro Care, Our Expert Dr. Samrat Jankar Suggests to patients the best advanced method i.e. Laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic hernia surgery offers a short recovery time, less postoperative discomfort, and less conspicuous scars, whereas open surgery has the advantage of not requiring general anesthesia. Some complex hernias are also better treated by open surgery. So the best treatment option depends on the state of the patient. Yet, the skill and experience of your hernia surgeon are major factors. Dr. Samart Jankar has been performing the best laparoscopic hernia surgery and its other related surgeries, and he is recognized as a highly respected hernia specialist in performing advanced surgery with excellent results for complicated ventral hernias such as TAR.
What happens if the hernia is untreated?
Except for umbilical hernias in infants, hernias do not go away on their own. A hernia may enlarge, become more painful, or develop complications over time. Untreated inguinal or femoral hernia complications could result in:
- Obstruction (incarceration): When a portion of the intestine gets lodged in the inguinal canal, it causes stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and a sore lump in the groin.
- Strangulation: When a portion of the intestine is trapped, its blood supply is cut off. In these circumstances, immediate hernia surgery is required to stop tissue death from happening.
