Optimal age for laparoscopic pediatric hernia repair surgery

Surgery is recommended for children after 1 year of age whose hernias do not improve on their own. Laparoscopic surgical procedures are now commonly used to repair pediatric hernias. Why is traditional surgery being replaced by laparoscopic surgery? There is a difference between minimally invasive surgery for hernia, i.e., pediatric laparoscopic surgery, in which the hernia ring is sutured in the pediatric abdominal cavity through laparoscopy, and traditional surgery in which an incision is made outside the skin and the hernia ring is sutured on the outside. Laparoscopic hernia benefits, first, because it does a high ligation, so it is not easy to recur; second, it is less damage, not easy to damage the reproductive vessels and vas deferens; third, you can check the opposite side of the hidden hernia, and has a good cosmetic effect, we do laparoscopic hernia, in the belly is almost can not be found wounds, and the traditional hernia has a very clear difference, which is also popular with the majority of parents.
