Inguinal hernia in children is a congenital disease that does not heal on its own and requires early consultation and surgery to avoid dangerous complications. Previously, inguinal hernia was often treated by open surgery (open surgery). Currently, Vinmec International General Hospital is a pioneer in applying laparoscopic inguinal hernia treatment techniques, helping children avoid two dangerous complications: blockage of the vas deferens or testicular atrophy, which are complications that can occur during open surgery.

Inguinal hernia is a common congenital malformation in children. If not promptly operated, inguinal hernia can easily lead to the risk of intestinal or ovarian necrosis, which is very dangerous. Previously, the disease was often treated with open surgery, but now laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery is widely applied and brings many advantages over open surgery.
