  1. Inguinal hernia repair procedure on a 43 year old male. Dr. Gudu completed 5 hernia procedures on the same day, and 72 hernia repairs in 2015. There are no mesh screens available for abdominal or inguinal hernia repairs to strengthen the abdominal wall. What is the name of the technique that Dr. Gudu uses for inguinal hernia repair? #gmhrounds

This is a photo of a very impressive umbilical hernia repaired as an open procedure under general anesthesia. In my current facility, open hernia repairs are usually performed under MAC sedation. Since this client was previously taking Ozempic despite maintaining proper NPO status, he was a candidate for intubation due to delayed gastric emptying properties of the medication. No mesh was used for this case. The herniation was repaired using sutures, mainly consisting of 2-0 Maxon.\
