What is Incisional Hernia?
The outgrown bulge can be painful and uncomfortable, especially while coughing, lifting heavy loads, or even when you are standing for a long time or lying down in a certain position.
You may not find it serious initially, but ignoring it over time can lead to bigger problems. Therefore, getting it checked by the doctor is the best way to stay safe and comfortable.
Causes of Incisional Hernia
Incomplete Healing
Incomplete healing of the abdominal wall post-surgery makes it easily susceptible for incisional hernias.
Increased Abdominal Pressure
Increased abdominal pressure also leads to hernia formation. Activities like chronic coughing, straining during bowel movements or heavy weight lifting are some frequent causes of incisional hernia.
Obesity
Obesity increases the risk of hernias. A person with excessive weight is more likely to put additional strain on the abdominal muscles during their body movements.
Other Risk Factors
Aging, smoking and poor nutrition also impair healing and muscle strength which can contribute to hernia development.

This Minimally Invasive approach uses small incisions and a laparoscope to repair the hernia.
Key Benefits:
- Faster recovery and minimal scarring.
- Reduces postoperative pain.
- Lower risk of infection.
Laparoscopic Hernia Repair is ideal for patients seeking minimally invasive hernia surgery in Delhi with a shorter hospital stay.
2. Robotic-Assisted Hernia Repair by Dr. Kapil Agrawal
This cutting-edge method involves robotic technology for enhanced accuracy during surgery. It is highly recommended for large or recurrent hernias.
Key Benefits:
- Best for complex cases
- Superior visualization for the surgeon.
- Better rebuilding of the abdominal wall.
- Enhanced long-term results.
Considered one of the best hernia surgeons in Delhi, Dr. Kapil Agarwal is ensuring optimal outcomes with his precise and controlled excellence in robotic-assisted Hernia Repair.
3. Open Hernia Repair
It is a traditional hernia repair method best suitable for cases where minimally invasive surgery is not feasible. It is particularly suggested for larger hernias or where the abdominal muscles require significant build-up.
Why is Robotic-Assisted Hernia Surgery Recommended?
Robotic-assisted hernia repair is preferred by patients and recommended by doctors because of its minimally invasive nature, leading to smaller incisions, reduced pain, and faster recovery post-operation.
The robotic system offers enhanced precision, allowing surgeons to repair hernias more effectively, lowering the risk of recurrence. Patients benefit from shorter hospital stays and a quicker return to normal activities.
For doctors, the robotic tools provide superior visualization, dexterity, and ergonomics, improving surgical accuracy and reducing complications. This combination of patient comfort and improved surgical outcomes makes robotic-assisted hernia repair an increasingly choice for hernia treatment.
