The cost of pediatric hernia surgery is very much related to the region and the type of surgery chosen, as well as the level of the hospital where the surgery is performed. For pediatric hernia surgery, if open surgery is performed in a county-level or secondary hospital, the full cost is about 3,500-4,000 yuan from admission to discharge. In county level hospitals and level 2 hospitals, if minimally invasive surgery is used for treatment, the cost is about 5,000-6,000 yuan. The cost of open surgery in a tertiary hospital at the provincial or municipal level is about 5,000-6,000 RMB. For minimally invasive treatment of inguinal hernia in a tertiary care hospital, the cost is about 8,000-10,000 RMB. There is also a relationship with whether the child has other co-morbidities. There is also the question of whether the child was diagnosed unilaterally before the surgery, and during the surgery minimally invasive exploration reveals that the child is bilateral, so the cost is also different.
