Laparoscopic Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair
Definition
Laparoscopic diaphragmatic hernia repair is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat diaphragmatic hernias, which occur when abdominal organs protrude through an opening or weakness in the diaphragm. The surgery involves the use of a laparoscope and specialized instruments to repair the defect in the diaphragm and return the displaced organs to their proper position.
