Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh Repair of Inguinal Hernia

Intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair is a surgical technique used to treat inguinal hernias. During the procedure, a mesh is placed over the defect from the inside of the abdominal cavity, providing support and reducing the risk of recurrence. IPOM repair is less invasive than traditional open surgery and is associated with faster recovery times. However, it can carry some risks, including the potential for adhesions and mesh-related complications. Overall, IPOM repair is a effective option for inguinal hernias, offering a balance between effectiveness and minimally invasive surgery.
