Recurrent Hernia
A recurrent hernia is a hernia that occurs in the same site as a previous hernia repair. Hernias recur primarily due to tension of the abdominal wall, which is too strong for the existing tissue. Surgeons attempt to minimize the risk of recurrence by utilizing tension minimizing approaches and synthetic mesh which is stronger than the abdominal wall.
The surgeons at Loveland Surgical Associates will be able to provide a detailed analysis of your condition and the best surgical approach for your specific problem.
