The hernia repair system of claim 9, wherein said centering feature includes a loop adapted to be grasped with a surgical tool. 12. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device includes at least one clip adapted to grab a suture. 13. The hernia repair system of claim 1, further including a hernia repair patch attached to said deployment device by said fixation component. 14. The hernia repair system of claim 13, wherein said hernia repair patch includes a mesh fabric. 15. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device is adapted to deliver minimally invasively a hernia repair patch. 16. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device has a first configuration for delivering a hernia repair patch to a placement site within the patient and a second configuration for deploying the hernia repair patch, a height and width of the second configuration being greater than a height and width of the first configuration. 17. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device is rollable or foldable into a narrower configuration adapted for placement in the body of a patient. 18. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device is flexible. 19. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device has a deployment configuration, and said fixation component extends in a direction perpendicular to a plane of said deployment device in the deployment configuration. 20. The hernia repair system of claim 19, wherein said fixation component has a substantially helical coil shape in the retracted configuration. 21. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device has a deployment configuration, and said fixation component extends in a direction parallel to a plane of said deployment device in the deployment configuration. 22. The hernia repair system of claim 21, wherein said fixation component has a substantially flattened coil shape in the retracted configuration. 23. The hernia repair system of claim 1, further including a plurality of fixation components extending from said deployment device. 24. The hernia repair system of claim 1, wherein said deployment device is rigid. 25. A hernia repair system, comprising: a deployment device adapted to deploy a hernia repair patch within a body of a patient; anda fixating component supported by said deployment device, said fixating component having a first extended configuration adapted for at least one of attaching or detaching the hernia repair patch to said deployment device, and a second non-extended configuration adapted to retain the hernia repair patch to said deployment device,wherein said deployment device includes an inflatable deployment device and said fixating component has a coil arrangement in the non-extended configuration. 26. The hernia repair system of claim 25, wherein said fixating component has a linear arrangement in the extended configuration. 27. The hernia repair system of claim 25, wherein said fixating component is configurable from a non-extended configuration to an extended configuration upon either mechanical pulling or pushing, application of an electrical current, application of heat, or application of a magnetic field. 28. The hernia repair system of claim 25, wherein said fixating component is automatically reconfigurable from the non-extended configuration to the extended configuration. 29. The hernia repair system of claim 25, further including a hernia repair patch attached to said deployment device by said fixation component. 30.
