Great video Doc. Do you get any concerns with abdominal compartment syndrome during the post op period once such a redundant part of the colon commonly sigmoid or transverse gets pushed back without any resection? Weve witnessed it in our patients and have been forced to sometimes resect with noted better outcomes.. Your opinion will be helpful. Thanks again.
Very interesting video. However, I'am wondering if those tissues are alive, because the patient is not bleeding at all during the dissection of the hernia
I Have a inguinal hernia for over 20 years That been sitting in my left testicle. I think my surgery will look some what familiar.. But Im really scared of going to sleep. Any advice?
Hi. I suffered with incarcerated hernia for six months until I had to be sent for emergency surgery last week. Now I'm watching these videos and I'm in total shock of what had to be done. But now, 7 days after the surgery I already feel much better. And I'm eating a whole wider range of food. Don't be afraid. You deserve to be better. All the best.
1. How long will that mesh last? 2. I had a hernia like this in my right testicle but at first i was having enlarged scrotum then some other time of the day it goes back to its original size then it reached a point where it was permanently enlarged, why was that? And thanks for the great video
Hernia repairs have a 1-2% chance of recurring after initial surgery, but 98-99% chance of being a permanent repair. Some hernias eventually get incarcerated where the bowel or fat cannot reduce.
Ev-Tech, Most of our patients (99%) are under general anesthesia for their hernia repairs. That would certainly be the case for a large scrotal hernia like this. Best, CAHS
Yes, swelling and bruising ultimately dissipate within weeks to months. For some very large hernias like this it can take many months. There are some before/after pictures on our website under 'Recent case highlights'.
I am 75 years old.I am suffering from Inguinal hernia within scrotum.smoking twice is daily habit.My blood pressure Is 160/100.weight is 45.can I go for key hole surgery.
just got one aswell, asked my buddy who got one a couple years ago and I guess it’s normal, the scrotal sac is stretched from the hernia so it’ll stay like that unfortunately
Wonderfully explained
Glad it was helpful!
Briliant doctor !

Most patients don't have such loss of domain that they risk having abdominal compartment syndrome in our experience.
Great job. Is that the only reason fat is kept to prevent bleeding or does it have any other uses?
You are correct, removing fat and other tissues increases the risks of bleeding.
For giant is ok to be done with spinal anesthesia or it's must will general? And Thanks for sharing
Some centers utilize spinal anesthesia for inguinal hernia repairs.

Franck, Yes, the patient was alive before, during and after the surgery. Best, CAHS
Might so much fat
@@CaliforniaHerniaSpecialists also put little bit interview of patient.

@@CaliforniaHerniaSpecialists Thank you. I appreciate it!
Was a patient put to sleep with general anesthesia or was it local anesthesia?
Ev-Tech, Most of our patients (99%) are under general anesthesia for their hernia repairs. That would certainly be the case for a large scrotal hernia like this. Best, CAHS
Can we go for gym after the surgery can v lift weighs ?
We allow our patients to return to lifting weights and going to the gym after 3 weeks.
I have a friend with scrotal hearnia for 2 decades, can it affects fertility?
Hernias of any size do not usually impact fertility.
Does the scrotum size reduce after surgery
Yes, swelling and bruising ultimately dissipate within weeks to months. For some very large hernias like this it can take many months. There are some before/after pictures on our website under 'Recent case highlights'.
Is this rare and what are the symptoms
Fortunately large scrotal hernias are rare.

Thank you for your comments and sharing your situation.
I did inguinal hernia repair and my scrotal sac have become big
Any advice
just got one aswell, asked my buddy who got one a couple years ago and I guess it’s normal, the scrotal sac is stretched from the hernia so it’ll stay like that unfortunately
Plustwo, Having swelling and bruising after surgery is 100% normal and will resolve in days/weeks. Best, CAHS
Why isn't all the fat trimmed off? Seems like a lot of it is viseral and wouldn't it be unessesary anyways?
Andrew, Removing additional tissues increases risks of bleeding and is avoided in most cases. Best, CAHS
