Hernia is a protrusion of an organ through a weak spot in the surrounding connective tissue called as a fascia. There are several types of hernia among which the most common are inguinal, incisional, and femoral. Hernia can be caused due to anything that causes an increase in pressure in the abdomen. There are some major factors in the advancements in the hernia repair such as transition into tension-free technique that incorporates the use of flat sheets of mesh instead of sutures, adoption of large pore meshes, and the adoption of laparoscopic surgeries instead of conventional open technique. Globally, the market is growing steadily and it is anticipated to show an exponential growth reaching approximately $8.5 Billion in 2022.
