Asking for Mother, Female, 72 years old, gujranwala
my mother 72 years old. she is ckd and liver cirrosis. can her harnia be treated with laparoscopic surgery and what is approximately cost?
How big is the hernia. How much problem it is causing. plus she needs to be seen by surgeon if there is need of surgery or not
Hernia where? In the centre of abdomen? If it is not causing much pain then better to avoid surgery however in general, laproscopic can be done for hernias
ur mother is 72 years old along e comorbid fector some patients who having ascities due to CLD they develop umblical hernia.my advice is first controlled the comorbid nd than consult surgeon who examine the patient nd decided which procedure is feasible for patient.
72 years with CLD, can cause ventral hernia, have to treat first the CLD and chirrosis, then get her examined for timing of hernia surgery.
assalam o alaikum, first her comorbidities are to be addressed then only after seeing the pt, treatment can be planned, but if not very problematic, should wait.
HelloThere
It will not be good to operate a patient with so many co morbids and esp cirrhosis with ascites. Plus it will give extra chances of complications of surgery esp infection and ascites leak
which hernia she is having ??
