Meshing around: Assessment and management of hernias

Meshing around: Assessment and management of hernias

Session Date:

Hernias of the abdominal wall (inguinal, epigastric, umbilical) are extremely common.

This talk will focus on a structured approach to assessment, dispel the dogma taught to us in medical school (Q: Is that a direct or direct inguinal hernia? Correct Answer: Doesn’t matter!) and outline time-tested and recent advances in hernia care.
