Inguinal Hernia is common in preterm babies as their abdominal muscle mass is less and the tone is also less. This fairly common condition is easily diagnosed and repaired. Occasionally, it may get strangulated (blood supply to a part of intestine caught being shut), needing a more advanced surgery. At Southern Gem, the focus is on early detection and treatment so that this complication is avoided. Learn in detail about this problem and procedure.
