HERNIA (INGUINARY, FEMORAL) AND THEIR SURGICAL TREATMENT METHODS

Abstract

Annotation. Hernias are a common surgical pathology that occurs when internal organs protrude through weak spots in the abdominal wall. The most common types are inguinal and femoral hernias, which differ in anatomical structure, frequency of occurrence and clinical course. Inguinal hernias are observed mainly in men, while femoral hernias are more common in women and are at a high risk of complications. The main method of treating hernias is surgery, and conservative treatments are only a temporary measure. Open and laparoscopic hernioplasty methods are widely used in modern surgical practice. Tension-free operations performed using synthetic meshes reduce the number of relapses and ensure rapid recovery of patients. This article discusses the clinical significance of inguinal and femoral hernias and modern surgical approaches to their treatment.
