Epigastric hernia

An epigastric hernia is an opening or weakness in the fibrous tissue of the abdomen between the breast bone and the belly button. It is caused by incomplete closure of the fibrous tissue of the abdomen during development. A general anesthetic is used. It is very important for you and the surgery nurse to mark the exact site of the bump with a special marker before your child goes to sleep the day of surgery. A small incision is made in the abdomen just over the hernia. The hernia sac and fiber tissue layers are sutured closed with dissolvable suture. The outer skin is then closed with skin glue and/or special tapes.
