Patient's question:
The child has intestinal gas. When taking time to visit a hospital for treatment, the expert said that it was already past the best time for conservative treatment. It is recommended to have a minimally invasive surgery for intestinal gas. Could you please ask how many hours the minimally invasive surgery for intestinal gas takes?Doctor's answer:
Hernia. It refers to the displacement of internal organs or tissues from their normal anatomical position. It occurs through congenital or acquired weaknesses, defects, or openings into another area. The main symptoms are pain and a lump in the hernia area. Ultrasound can provide a clear diagnosis. If not treated promptly, hernias may gradually increase, symptoms may worsen, and even strangulation or obstruction may threaten the patient's life. Therefore, surgical treatment should be performed as soon as possible. Minimally invasive surgery typically lasts for about two hours.
