ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF HERNIA

Image
A hernia usually happens in the abdomen or groin, when one of the organs pushes through the muscle or tissue that contains it. It may look like an odd bulge that comes and goes during different activities or positions. It may or may not cause symptoms, such as discomfort or pain. Most hernias eventually will need laparoscopic surgery for hernia for a complete cure.   What is HERNIA? A hernia occurs when part of your insides bulges through an opening or weakness in the muscle or tissue that contains it. Most hernias involve one of your abdominal organs pushing through one of the walls of your abdominal cavity. Hernias can occur gradually as you get older and regular wear and tear on your muscles begins to add up. They can also result from an injury, surgery or birth disorder. SOME OF THE COMMON PLACES WHERE HERNIA CAN EFFECT THE BODY:- The common hernia locations in the human bodies are:- •         In your lower chest through your diaphragm. •         In your groin through your lower ab

How Effective Is Laparoscopic Surgery For Hernia - Here Are The Procedures

Image
A hernia is usually treated with surgery. The three main types of hernia surgery are open hernia surgery, laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery, and robotic surgery. The decision on the appropriate surgical approach is made by the surgeon based on factors such as the size, location, and type of hernia, as well as the patient's overall health. Is laparoscopic hernia surgery better than open hernia surgery Laparoscopic surgery for hernia offers several advantages over open hernia surgery. It involves making a few small incisions, typically ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 centimetres in length, compared to a larger incision used in open surgery. Smaller incisions result in reduced scarring and a more cosmetic outcome with less post-operative pain compared to open surgery. Likewise, the risk of wound complications, such as infection or wound herniation, is reduced. Additional support is provided to the weakened area and reduces the risk of hernia recurrence. The smaller incisions are

Robotic surgery - are surgeries performed by Robots?

Image
  Robotic-assisted surgery improves precision agility in critical surgeries and ensures a better view of the surgical site to surgeons for most common robotic surgery procedures compared to traditional surgical procedures. It assists surgeons in performing minimally invasive procedures for complex and otherwise impossible or difficult surgeries. How it is performed Clinical Robotic surgery is equipped with a camera arm and mechanical arms attached to surgical instruments. In this process, the surgeon sits at a computer console adjacent to the operating table and manages the arms during the operation. The console shares a magnified, high-definition 3-D view of the surgical site with the surgeon. Assisting teammates can also witness the surgical site through the magnifier. Since this type of surgery is conducted by small, precise cuts in operation, It is more useful than standard endoscopic techniques. Robotic arm-assisted laparoscopic surgery is more manageable to perform than en

Advancements Of Robotic Surgery At SELSMA In Malaysia

Image
Robotic surgery is a rapidly growing field in the medical industry, and Malaysia is no exception. With the use of advanced robotic technology for   Robotic surgery in Malaysia , surgeons in Malaysia are able to perform procedures with greater precision and accuracy, resulting in improved patient outcomes and faster recovery times. One of the main benefits of robotic surgery is its ability to perform complex procedures with extreme precision. This is particularly useful in surgeries that involve intricate movements or hard-to-reach areas of the body. Robotic technology allows surgeons to make small, precise movements that would be impossible with traditional surgical techniques. Another advantage of robotic surgery is the increased visualization it provides to surgeons. With the use of high-definition cameras and advanced imaging technology, surgeons are able to see inside the patient's body in great detail, allowing for more accurate diagnosis and treatment. This is particul

Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery - Preparation, Process, And Risks

Image
  When do you need laparoscopic gallbladder surgery? Laparoscopic gallbladder surgery in Malaysia helps people with gallstones and crystals that form in the gallbladder and are causing pain and infection. Gallstones can block the progression of bile out of the gallbladder into your digestive system. This roadblock results in cholecystitis or inflammation of the gallbladder. Gallstones can also move to other parts of the body and cause pain. Symptoms of gallstones include : ●      Feeling bloated. ●      Fever. ●      Jaundice (yellow-looking skin). ●      Nausea. ●      Pain in the right side of the abdomen, which may reach the back of the shoulder. Preparations for a laparoscopic gallbladder removal You’ll undergo different tests before the process to ensure that you’re healthy enough for the procedure. These tests will include: ●      blood tests ●      imaging tests of your gallbladder ●      a complete physical exam ●      a review of your medical histo

Robotic Surgery - How it is Done and its Benefits

Image
  Robotic surgery , also called robot-assisted surgery, allows doctors to accomplish many types of complex procedures with more precision, flexibility, and control than is possible with conventional techniques. Robotic surgery is usually attributed to minimally invasive surgery — techniques performed through tiny incisions. It is also sometimes used in certain traditional open surgical treatments. Why it's done Surgeons who use the robotic system find that for many procedures it enriches accuracy, flexibility, and control during the operation and allows them to better see the site, compared with traditional techniques. Using robotic surgery, surgeons can perform sensitive and complex procedures that may be difficult or impossible with other methods.     How Robotic surgery works   To operate using the Robotic system, the surgeon makes tiny incisions in your body and inserts miniaturized tools and a high-definition three-dimensional camera, and sometimes skin incisions are n

Prevent and Cure Upper GI Hernia with Modern Medical Science

Image
Hiatal hernia, also known as upper GI hernia is a health condition that occurs when the stomach’s upper part bulges through a large muscle and separates the chest and abdomen. No matter what age you are in, upper GI hernia occurs in people of any age or gender. But mostly it develops in the age group of 50 and more than that. Also, smokers and people suffering from obesity have the risk to develop upper GI hernia.   Causes and Symptoms of Upper GI Hernia The most common reason to develop upper GI hernia is the increase of pressure in the abdominal cavity that holds organs such as kidney, gallbladder, the lower part of the esophagus, liver, colon, rectum, small intestine, etc. There are several reasons for increasing pressure in the abdominal cavity including, physical strain, heavy lifting, coughing, vomiting, straining during bowel movements, and many more. During pregnancy, women can experience upper gi hernia. Upper GI hernia or hiatal hernia has more causes including injur
