Performing hernia repair during cesarean section is safe and effective. This combined approach for abdominal wall hernias in pregnant women avoids hospital readmission and offers advantages for patients and healthcare budgets.

Area of Science:

  • General Surgery
  • Obstetrics & Gynecology

Background:

  • Abdominal wall hernias during pregnancy are typically repaired postpartum.
  • Delayed repair may necessitate readmission and additional healthcare costs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the clinical outcomes of concurrent cesarean section and hernia repair.
  • To compare this combined approach with cesarean section alone.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 28 women undergoing combined cesarean section and inguinal/umbilical hernia repair.
  • Comparison with 100 women who had cesarean section only.

Main Results:

  • No complications were observed during perinatal or follow-up periods.
  • No hernia recurrences were noted.
