Question 1

When is mesh removal needed after hernia surgery in Mumbai?

Accepted Answer

Mesh may need to be removed in cases of chronic infection, mesh erosion into bowel or other structures, chronic pain (mesh-related), or allergic/reaction to the mesh. It is a specialised procedure. Dr. Sharad Sharma has experience in mesh removal and revision at Hernia Surgery Clinic in Bandra and Vashi.

Question 2

Is mesh removal surgery risky?

Accepted Answer

Mesh removal can be complex because the mesh becomes incorporated into tissue. It requires careful dissection and sometimes bowel or other structure repair. An experienced hernia surgeon can assess the risks and plan the procedure. We discuss risks and benefits at consultation.

Question 3

Can the hernia come back after mesh removal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Removing the mesh leaves a defect that may need to be repaired again, sometimes with a new mesh or with tissue-only techniques. Your surgeon will discuss the best approach for your situation, including options for revision repair.

Question 4

How much does mesh removal surgery cost in Mumbai?

What are the signs that I need mesh removal?

Question 8

Can mesh be partially removed?

Accepted Answer

In some cases, partial mesh removal is possible when only a portion is causing problems. In other cases, full removal is needed. Your surgeon will assess and recommend the best approach for your situation.
