What is the success rate for abdominal herniation?

Hernia repair: Hernia repair surgery is quite successful. It is a very common surgery. Your medical conditions, weight status, hernia size and location also has a factor on healing success.

Variable: It depends on the hernia, the technique and the surgeon. A small hernia, and a general surgeon with the appropriate training and experience should have a high probability of repair.
