Understanding Your Decision
Hernia Repair
A hernia can occur when internal organs push through a weak spot in a muscular wall, bulging abnormally under the skin. Your doctor may recommend hernia repair surgery that uses a biologic implant.
Biologic implants are a natural alternative to synthetic implants, and unlike synthetic implants, biologic implants incorporate into the patient’s body.
It is important to discuss questions or concerns with your physician before your surgery.
