Hernia Surgery

Advanced Treatment for All Types of Hernias

A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue protrudes through the body. Hernias are common and usually don’t need immediate treatment, though many will eventually require surgical repair.

The nationally and internationally recognized surgeons at University Hospitals Comprehensive Hernia Center are skilled in hernia repair techniques, including minimally invasive laparoscopic, robotic and open surgeries.

Surgical Expertise to Repair Hernias

Hernias can occur anywhere from the breastbone to the groin. Each type requires a different surgical repair technique. Our surgical team provides state-of-the-art surgical treatment for routine hernias to the most complex cases, including:

Recurrent Hernia Repair

Hernias can reoccur because of a wound infection, improper healing or inadequate repair during the initial procedure. Recurrent hernias can be repaired with surgery or minimally invasive laparoscopic or robotic techniques, depending on the hernia size, location and prior treatment.

At the UH Comprehensive Hernia Center, our surgeons have a proven track record of success at treating complex recurrent hernias.

Managing Post Surgical Pain

We provide advanced post-operative care to reduce any discomfort during the healing process. Non-narcotic methods of pain control are used before, during and after surgery to minimize the need for stronger pain medication and maximize recovery.
