@docsteinig @OrensteinSean @Trules25 @rbarbosa91 @EricKnauerMD @abhishekpar @Herniadoc @herniabarbie @jennyshaomd @JFarellSurgeon @AzarowKen Probably true that it’s better to do an open repair than to mess up an MIS repair, but femoral hernias are notoriously missed via anterior approach. If a patient has one, best to send them to someone who regularly does MIS. https://t.co/CjlzuDYI26 https://t.co/bNLpPgItPS

@theliverdr https://t.co/iIZvu01za8 Watchful waiting 'may be used' in very small or asymptomatic hernias but most will eventually require surgery. Not a definite case for operating every hernia but also doesnt recommend no treatment as dependable.

@rintasurg In lateral and small/mid size medial inguinal hernia hernias (EHS classification) there is no difference in recurrence with no fixation. (Medium weight or light mesh) But if concerned, non-tacked (glue or suture) fixation is recommended to avoid pain. https://t.co/3O3UCbozKs
