Hernia repair surgery has seen significant advancements in recent years, as public awareness of concerns about mesh in surgery has increased. It emphasizes the importance of developing new treatment methods to increase survival rates and improve quality of life following surgery. New mesh compositions and absorbable biomaterials are more durable and biocompatible than ever. The evolution in minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopy and endoscopy has further contributed to less scarring and post-operative pain. The adoption of robotic surgery in hernia repair has gained popularity due to its enhanced precision and reduced recovery times. Moreover, advances in the modern era of science and research have enabled stem cells and growth factors to be used to promote tissue repair. These advancements have collectively taken a significant leap forward to produce effective results from repairing these defects.
