###Human: Is it advisable to do surgery in an elderly for recurrent parastomal hernia? ###Assistant: Hi. Sorry to hear about your father's condition. There are two options now. Due to elderly age and recurrent problem and anesthesia risk, we can manage it conservatively trying to avoid complications. It will be a safe position. If you wish to take the risk, we can approach laparoscopically. It will be high risk and technically demanding. We need to shift to higher facility and pose a high risk because of previous surgeries. So, the choice is yours.
