FAQ

What is the difference between TEP and TAPP for inguinal hernia

Both are excellent laparoscopic techniques. TEP avoids entering the abdominal cavity, which may result in less post-operative pain. TAPP allows the surgeon to inspect the abdominal cavity, which is useful for recurrent or complex hernias. Dr. Rathee will recommend the best approach based on your specific case.

What is eTEP and why is it advanced?

eTEP (Extended View TEP) is an advanced technique that allows the surgeon to treat complex hernias and multiple defects through a single small incision, without entering the abdominal cavity. It offers the benefits of minimal invasiveness with excellent outcomes for complex abdominal wall reconstruction.

What is IPOM Plus?

IPOM Plus is an advanced technique for ventral hernia repair where the hernia defect is closed with sutures before placing a mesh. This “plus” step significantly reduces the chance of the hernia coming back (recurrence) and restores the natural function of the abdominal wall.

How soon can I go back to work after laparoscopic surgery?

Most patients can return to desk work within 3-5 days after laparoscopic gallstone or hernia surgery. For heavy lifting or strenuous activity, we usually recommend a 2-4 week recovery period, depending on the procedure.

Is robotic surgery better than laparoscopic surgery?

Robotic surgery offers enhanced 3D vision and precision, which is particularly beneficial for complex cases. However, standard laparoscopy is highly effective for most routine procedures. Dr. Rathee will advise you on the best approach for your condition.
