Internal HerniaSurgery
Internal hernias occur within the abdominal cavity and can be complex. Dr. Sharad Sharma offers expert diagnosis and surgery in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.

What Is an Internal Hernia?
An internal hernia occurs when the intestine or other abdominal contents protrude through an opening or defect inside the abdomen (e.g. in the mesentery or a congenital defect). There is no visible bulge on the outside. It can cause pain, obstruction, or strangulation and often requires surgery.

Symptoms & Diagnosis
Symptoms can include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and signs of bowel obstruction. Diagnosis may require CT or other imaging; sometimes the hernia is found during surgery. We recommend evaluation if you have concerning symptoms, especially after weight loss surgery.

When Surgery Is Needed
Internal hernias that cause symptoms or obstruction typically need surgery. Strangulation is a surgical emergency. Elective repair may be considered when a defect is identified and poses a risk. Dr. Sharad Sharma will recommend the best approach for your condition.

Surgical Options
We offer laparoscopic and open surgery for internal hernias. The procedure involves reducing the herniated contents and closing the defect. Laparoscopic approach is often preferred when feasible. We discuss all options at consultation.
