A correct diagnosis comes first
A surgical consultation assesses the type and size of the hernia and the risk of complications. In some cases, the doctor supplements the examination with ultrasound.
Selecting the treatment method
The surgical method depends on the clinical findings, previous procedures and the patient’s general condition. The doctor makes the decision after examination and discussion of the available options.
