Incisional hernia Treatment in Dr. Mohamed Abdelsalam Surgery Clinic

About the clinic

Incisional hernia care at Dr. Mohamed Abdelsalam Surgery Clinic in Giza, Egypt, includes diagnosis and open or laparoscopic repair. Dr. Mohamed Abdelsalam is a general and laparoscopic surgery consultant with over 10 years of experience and IFSO certification.

Diagnosis and treatment planning

The general surgery unit treats incisional hernias. A physical exam, ultrasound, or CT scan can help assess the hernia and plan repair.

  • Physical examination: Locates the hernia and checks its size.
  • Ultrasound: Evaluates the contents of the hernia.
  • CT scan: Assesses the hernia’s size and contents to help plan treatment.

Incisional hernia repair options

Both procedures return the hernia contents to the abdominal cavity and reinforce the abdominal wall with surgical mesh. The approach depends on the patient’s condition.

  • Open incisional hernia repair: A traditional option for complex or recurrent hernias. It may use general or local anesthesia, depending on the case.
  • Laparoscopic incisional hernia repair: A minimally invasive operation that uses surgical mesh. It is associated with less pain and faster recovery than open surgery, with lower recurrence when mesh is used.

After laparoscopic repair, patients should avoid heavy lifting for 4–6 weeks. Light office work may be possible in about 5 days, with full recovery in 1–1.5 months. Postoperative guidance includes a fiber-rich diet and monitored follow-up.

Dr. Abdelsalam holds an MD in General Surgery from Kasr Al-Ainy School of Medicine, Cairo University. He is certified in the Fundamentals of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery by IFSO, and holds ATLS, ILS, and BESS certifications. He is a member of IFSO, ESBS, and the Egyptian Society of Endoscopic Surgery.

Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss diagnosis and repair options.

Dr. Mohamed Abdelsalam Surgery Clinic: more details about the clinic

Egypt, Giza Governorate
Dr. Mohamed Abdelsalam Surgery Clinic is a private surgical facility in Giza, Egypt. Established in 2019, it houses three specialized departments in a single building. The center provides bariatric, laparoscopic, and general surgical care for local and international patients.### Surgical Expertise and AchievementsDr. Mohamed Abdelsalam leads the clinic as a consultant in bariatric and general surgery. He brings over 10 years of experience in advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Abdelsalam earned his M.D. in general surgery from the Kasr Al-Ainy School of Medicine. He holds a certification in the Fundamentals of Bariatric Surgery and Metabolic Representation from the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity (IFSO).The clinic participates in global medical discourse through regular international conference attendance. Dr. Abdelsalam has represented the practice at events in Madrid, Naples, and Cairo. He maintains active memberships in several professional organizations:
  • International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity (IFSO)
  • Egyptian Society of Bariatric Surgery (ESBS)
  • Egyptian Society of Endoscopic Surgery
These affiliations keep the clinic current on laparoscopic and metabolic surgery protocols.### Weight Loss SurgeryThe bariatric program treats adults, children, and elderly patients who meet clinical requirements. Specialists perform weight-loss procedures using small-incision laparoscopic techniques. The flagship Bikini Line Sleeve Gastrectomy places incisions in the lower abdomen. This minimizes visible scarring. Standard gastric sleeve procedures typically take around 60 minutes.The clinic offers several gastric bypass variants for different metabolic needs:
  • Classic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass – approximately 90 minutes
  • Mini Gastric Bypass (One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass)
  • Revisional bariatric surgery for patients requiring secondary interventions
Classic bypass surgery helps resolve GERD by keeping digestive acids away from the esophagus. Every patient undergoes a full medical assessment starting from the first visit.### General Surgery and ProctologyThe general surgery department treats abdominal and soft-tissue conditions. Surgeons repair inguinal, umbilical, incisional, and hiatal hernias. For umbilical hernia repair, the clinic may use surgical mesh to strengthen the abdominal wall. This reduces the risk of recurrence.The proctology unit provides diagnostic and surgical care for rectal conditions. Specialists diagnose patients through direct clinical examination, sometimes under anesthesia for accuracy. Available treatments include:
  • Laser surgery for pilonidal sinus
  • Hemorrhoid surgery for internal and external subtypes
  • Anal fissure surgery
  • Gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy)
  • Appendectomy
Hiatal hernia patients receive lifestyle guidance combined with surgical intervention when needed. Surgery is reserved for large hernias that don't respond to acid-reducing medications.### Recovery and Patient SupportThe clinic provides structured recovery milestones to help patients return to daily routines. After most laparoscopic procedures, patients can resume light office work in 5 days. Moderate activity and light exercise are typically allowed after two weeks. Full recovery generally takes one to one and a half months.Hernia patients receive specific post-operative instructions for proper healing. They should avoid lifting heavy objects for 4–6 weeks. The clinical team monitors the surgical site during regular follow-up visits. A fiber-rich diet is recommended for proctology and hernia patients to prevent complications. All bariatric patients must follow the doctor's long-term nutritional plan closely.
