Umbilical hernia repair and incision type

Postby Ved_pumper » Tue Mar 10, 2026 11:51 am

Few years back I had a umbilical hernia repair using mesh.

Still waiting for my initial urologist appointment regarding an implant and I'm sure the urologist will answer this question. But I was wondering if anyone had a similar hernia and was able to have the implant infrapubic? Or did they go penoscrotal?

The reservoir placement and the incision is what I'm wondering about with the mesh umbilical hernia repair.

Ved_pumper, FWIW, I had that repair a long long time ago. Mine was penoscrotal, but the repair wasn't part of the discussion or decision. Also my reservoir is in the left side of the abdomen but again not related to the repair.
