Internal Hernia Repair is performed to correct a hernia that occurs inside the abdominal cavity, where part of the intestine becomes trapped in an abnormal opening or space. This condition can cause pain, obstruction, and in some cases, ischemia (loss of blood flow to the intestines).

The procedure involves identifying the location of the hernia, reducing the herniated intestine, and repairing the defect in the abdominal cavity. Laparoscopic techniques are commonly used for a less invasive approach, but open surgery may be required in some cases.

Postoperative care includes monitoring for complications such as bowel obstruction, infection, or recurrence of the hernia. Nutritional support may also be necessary if the surgery affects digestive function.

Internal hernia repair is essential for preventing life-threatening complications such as bowel strangulation, and it helps restore normal intestinal function and alleviate pain.
