This technique was developed by the well-known pediatric surgeon, professor of the Wroclaw Medical University, president of the Association of Pediatric Surgeons of Poland, Dariusz Patkowski. It absolutely corresponds to a full-fledged operation, which is performed by an open method, but at the same time the integrity of soft tissues is not violated.<\/p>\n
“Its essence is that a thin needle is inserted in the area near the hernia, and a 3-millimeter camera for visualization of the operation is inserted into the umbilical fold. After removing the needle and camera, a puncture remains on the body as after a regular injection. That is, there is no injury at all,” explains the surgeon.<\/p>\n
