Inguinal hernia (inguinal hernia)

Inguinal hernia surgery is one of the most common procedures performed at our center. We offer you the entire spectrum of modern treatment procedures – individually tailored to your findings and your personal needs.

In addition to mesh-reinforced procedures, mesh-free operations are still firmly established. These include, in particular, the proven Shouldice technique (suture procedure) and the Desarda procedure, in which the body’s own tissue is used for stabilization.

We prefer to use the minimally invasive TEP method (total extraperitoneal hernia repair) as the standard procedure with mesh. The mesh is gently inserted outside the abdominal cavity. This procedure enables rapid recovery and is particularly advantageous and recommended by guidelines for bilateral hernias and for women.

We also regularly perform open procedures such as the Lichtenstein operation and the TIPP procedure (open, pre-peritoneal mesh implantation).

Together with you, we decide in a personal consultation which procedure is most suitable for you. You benefit from modern equipment, extensive experience and individually tailored treatment.
