    Diagnostic laparoscopy as the definitive means of hernia detection?

    Thank you for the response Dr. Towfigh. Is it possible to take down the peritoneum but not end up putting mesh in if a hernia is not seen? Or is the mesh required once the peritoneum is taken down? Also, do you know of a good hernia surgeon in San Diego county I could visit?
    Thank you
