About the procedure: Length of intervention 60 minutes Healing 2 days Permanent solution Designation women and men The alpha and omega of everyday surgical practice is to minimize the surgical extent while maintaining the necessary radicality of the procedure. The aim is to perform operations more accurately, more safely and at the same time to minimize possible complications. Nowadays, laparoscopy is quite routinely used in minimally invasive methods. Compared to the methods of classical open surgery, it has indeed brought tremendous benefits to patients in many ways. Initially it was used for elective operations, later also for acute and increasingly demanding procedures. Thanks to modern technologies and further efforts to reduce the burden on the patient, the latest mini-laparoscopy technique has been developed, which we also use in our clinic thanks to full-fledged instrumentation and experienced staff. Ports with an outer dimension of only 3 mm are used for access and are therefore only tiny punctures. The patient thus effectively avoids an unwanted incision and its associated risks and consequences. Other advantages of minilaparoscopy compared to conventional laparoscopy are reduced operative time, reduced need for postoperative medical treatment, shortened hospital stay, significantly faster recovery and thus return to normal life. Equally important for many patients is excellent cosmesis, i.e. minimal visible consequences in the form of scars on their body. Advantages of mini-laparoscopy: Very small size of entry holes, no sewing required – no scars. Traces after the introduction of microinstruments in the length of only 3-4 mm. Same-day surgery Faster recovery, PN not needed Minimal postoperative pain Hernia – Minilaparoscopic strip surgery A hernia, otherwise known as a streak or hernia, is the pathological movement of organs or tissues from their natural location to another. The most common inguinal hernia is localized in the groin and its content is usually the small intestine. Umbilical hernia in the umbilicus or epigastric hernia in the epigastrium is very common. However, hernias also arise in other locations, for example in scars after abdominal surgery. The approximate prevalence of hernias in the population is up to 10%. Symptoms are usually mild and the patient feels only some discomfort, but neglect can lead to complications in the form of necrosis and inflammation of the strangulated abdominal organs and tissues. It is through surgery that the strip sac can be removed, eliminating any potential danger to the patient. In general, the laparoscopic method of hernia repair is preferred as it has a less painful postoperative course and faster recovery time. The strip sac is pulled back into the abdominal cavity and the opening is covered with a mesh to prevent the hernia from forming again. The modern mini-laparoscopic instruments we use in our clinic require only very small punctures and the healing process is fast and less painful, without leaving significant marks. The course of surgery, recovery: 1After the initial consultation, the surgeon will thoroughly assess your condition and explain your options for surgery and the limitations and risks associated with it. All pre-operative examinations are performed exclusively in our facility. 2The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia, during which our anaesthesiologists use the latest procedures and preparations. The surgery itself takes about 90 minutes and patients can go home with their companion within 4-5 hours after the surgery. In some cases, overnight hospitalization in our facility may be recommended. 3After the surgery, it is important to strictly follow the surgeon's recommendations.
