A hernia is where an internal part of the body pushes through a weakness in the muscle or surrounding tissue wall. Hernias usually occur in the abdomen and there are several different types, each determined by its location within the abdomen.

This book is an operative guide to laparoscopic hernia repair for practising and trainee surgeons.

Beginning with an introduction and discussion on anatomy, the following section provides step by step guidance on the surgical repair of different types of hernia, and potential difficulties and complications.

The final chapter provides a general overview of hernia, explaining classification, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
