Centre of Excellence in Hernia Surgery

Surgical care shaped around your anatomy

From primary repairs to complex abdominal wall reconstructions, we match the surgical technique to your defect size, prior operative history, and personal physical demands.

Minimally invasive

Primary and groin repairs

Tailored laparoscopic and robotic solutions for inguinal and femoral defects, focused on low tissue tension and rapid return to normal activity.

Verified clinical pathway
eTEP & Retro-rectus

Ventral and incisional defects

Anatomical plane restoration using retrorectus eTEP repairs, placing surgical mesh outside the peritoneal cavity to minimize recurrence.

Verified clinical pathway
Complex & recurrent

Abdominal wall reconstruction

Advanced component separation techniques (TAR) for large loss-of-domain hernias, rebuilding structural core stability and midline integrity.

Conditions we treat

From routine outpatient hernia repairs to complex, loss-of-domain cases and advanced abdominal wall reconstruction, Dr. Nitin Rimmalapudi delivers precision laparoscopic and robotic surgical care.

Inguinal hernia laparoscopic mesh repair illustration
Groin area weakness
Inguinal hernia

A bulge in the groin or scrotum occurring when tissue pushes through a weakness in the lower abdominal wall muscles.

Treated with minimally invasive laparoscopic (TAPP/TEP) or robotic repair with tension-free mesh reinforcement.

Ventral and incisional abdominal wall hernia repair illustration
Abdominal wall or prior scar sites
Ventral & incisional hernia

Tissue protrusion developing through previous surgical scars or natural midline muscle separations.

Repaired using advanced eTEP and robotic retrorectus techniques to rebuild midline abdominal wall tension.

Umbilical hernia repair and mesh positioning illustration
Navel & belly button area
Umbilical hernia

A defect near the navel where abdominal contents push through the naturally thin umbilical ring opening.

Treated with keyhole surgery or robotic preperitoneal mesh placement with quick recovery.

Femoral hernia anatomical structure and repair illustration
Upper thigh & groin canal
Femoral hernia

A protrusion into the femoral canal just below the inguinal ligament that requires prompt clinical attention.

Managed with precise robotic or laparoscopic exploration to eliminate the defect while safeguarding femoral vessels.

Complex abdominal wall reconstruction and component separation illustration
Failed repairs & large defects
Recurrent & complex hernia

Hernias that have returned after prior surgeries or involve loss of domain requiring reconstruction.

Treated with comprehensive Abdominal Wall Reconstruction (AWR), component separation (TAR), and robotic precision.

Hernia and bariatric surgery practice led by Dr. Nitin Rimmalapudi in Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh. Dedicated to advanced abdominal wall reconstruction and robotic hernia repair.
