Through Our Patients’ Eyes

At Minnesota Hernia Center we pride ourselves in using Enhanced Recovery Protocols for preoperative optimization and faster healing after hernia surgery.

Susan was diagnosed with a large diaphragmatic hernia (Morgagni hernia) containing intraabdominal organs, which were herniating into the chest cavity and partly compressed her right lung.

Dr. Lucian Panait performed a robotic repair of the hernia. During this informal discussion, two months after the operation, Susan describes her experience with the robotic minimally invasive surgical technique, and emphasizes the importance of preoperative nutrition optimization to assure a fast recovery.
