The time to perform hernia surgery in elderly female patients is related to the specific condition, the surgical method, the surgeon’s surgical technique and other factors, and cannot be generalized. In general, if an elderly female patient undergoes traditional open surgery, the operating time usually varies from 0.5 to 1 hour for a mature physician; if a patch is applied and laparoscopic surgical repair is chosen, the operating time is mostly within 1 hour; if special circumstances are found during surgery, such as a large defect, severe adhesions or more obvious bleeding, the operating time can be delayed and some surgeries can take up to 2 hours or even longer. or even longer. In the case of an incarcerated hernia with intestinal tube entrapment and necrosis, partial resection of the intestinal tube and intestinal anastomosis will be required, and the operation time will be relatively longer. In addition, patients are advised to avoid weight-bearing and other activities that increase abdominal pressure for 3 to 6 months after surgery to avoid affecting the recovery of the incision or causing recurrence of the hernia.
