A surgical mesh is also used to patch the hole. This type of surgery is done for hernias where a portion of the intestines has moved down into the scrotum. A part of the scrotum or groin may be incised to retrieve and reposition the intestine. Then, it is closed using stitches. Open surgery requires a longer recovery process.
