Surgical treatment is necessary if the hernia causes discomfort to the patient, if there is danger of impending obstruction or if the defect is narrow.
- Anatomical Repair - All the anatomical layers are closed one after another by using non absorbable suture material.
- Mesh Repair - Best repair in obese, multiparous female patients. A mesh is placed in the peritoneal sac and covered by rectus muscles. Tensionfree non absorbable suture materials are used. Prolene mesh or marlex mesh is commonly used.
- Laproscopic mesh repair - Procedure of choice today. Recovery is fast and recurrence is very low.
