LAPAROSCOPIC APPROACH TO COMBINED BILATERAL INGUINAL AND VENTRAL HERNIAS.

Herniosis is a well-documented phenomenon amongst patients who develop any hernia over their lifetime. Multiple hernias at different anatomical locations are quite common though they more often occur metachronously. When they present synchronously, there is an additional advantage to tackling these hernias laparoscopically as it affords the advantage of thorough inspection of the entire peritoneal cavity and the ability to address all hernias simultaneously. This video demonstrates one of the modified approached to the groin and midline that facilities a combined procedure without the need for additional port placements. A bilateral TAPP and Midline IPOM repair is performed simultaneously.
