Objective: This study aimed to demonstrate the safety and the efficacy of the self-gripping mesh (ProgripTM) for inguinal hernia repair in morbid patients of the higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification (ASA III and IV). The incidence of chronic pain, postoperative complications, and hernia recurrence was evaluated.Methods: Data were collected retrospectively from the files of the patient and were analyzed for 198 hernias in 147 patients. All the patients included in this study had undergone inguinal hernia repair by Lichtenstein approach with the self-gripping mesh (ProgripTM) in the same clinical center. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative data were collected and a long-term follow-up of 31.8 ± 19.5 m (5–60 m) was performed. Complications, pain scored on a 0–10 numeric rating scale (NRS), and hernia recurrence were assessed.Results: During the past 5 years, 198 hernias in 147 patients were repaired with the Lichtenstein procedure with the self-gripping mesh (ProgripTM). The majority of the patients were high level of the ASA classification (ASA III and IV) (95.9%), with ASA III (10.2%) and IV (85.7%). The mean operation time was 71.2 ± 23.8 min. The mean length of postoperative stay was 2.5 ± 2.1 days. There were no intraoperative complications. About 14 cases (7.1%) suffered from postoperative surgical wound complications, which were limited to the skin and subcutaneous tissue and were cured with the conservative methods successfully; there was no mesh infection, the acute postoperative pain was low or mild [visual analog scale (VAS) score ≤ 4] and the chronic postoperative pain was reported in three patients (1.5%) and tolerable, hernia recurrence (femoral hernia recurrence) occurred in one patient half a year after during the follow-up period.Conclusion: This study demonstrated the advantages of the self-gripping mesh in hernia repair of the high-risk patients with inguinal hernia (ASA III and IV) by Lichtenstein procedure under local anesthesia.

Background and Aims. The aim of this prospective single-center study was to evaluate the outcome of inguinal hernia repair. Materials and Methods. A total of 485 inguinal hernias (452 patients and 33 patients with bilateral hernias) were operated between January 2004 and December 2010. Mean age was 56 years, and 93% were male. Patient demographics and operative data were collected, and the operating surgeon assessed the technical difficulty of the operation. Five years after surgery, a questionnaire evaluated recurrence and chronic discomfort according to the Cunningham scale. 372 responded (82%), and mean follow-up was 5.5 years. Results. There were 390 repairs for a primary and 62 for a recurrent hernia. Totally extraperitoneal (TEP) operation was most frequently performed (56%), transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) operation in 31%, and Lichtenstein and Shouldice in 12% and 2%, respectively. At 5-year follow-up, the primary outcome of chronic discomfort was 19.5%. The independent positive predictors were young age and operation for a recurrent hernia (OR: 3.7), with TEP operation reducing the risk of chronic discomfort (OR: 0.5). The secondary outcome was the recurrence rate of 2.5%. Risk factors were strenuous work (OR: 13.7), technically difficult repairs (OR: 7.2), and chronic discomfort (OR: 6.7). Conclusions. Every fifth patient had chronic discomfort in long-term follow-up. The recurrence rate was 2.5%, and a technically difficult procedure was a risk factor.

AbstractThere is a tremendous paucity of literatures regarding the long-term surgical outcomes of the r-TAPP procedure for inguinal hernia repair. Additionally, much of the existing literatures regarding this procedure have limited follow-up of to 12 months. This article presents the outcomes of 150 consecutive r-TAPP inguinal hernia repairs performed on 111 patients using Progrip mesh without fixation, with up to 24 months of follow-up. The initial 150 consecutive r-TAPP inguinal hernia repairs were performed from February 2017 to April 2018 using Progrip without fixation. All patients were seen at 2 weeks, followed by phone follow-up at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. Of the 111 patients, 39 had bilateral hernias (35%) and 72 had unilateral hernias (65%). The age range was 18–93 years. The BMI range was 20.7–50.2, with a mean of 26.4 and median of 25.8. Total operative time ranged from 28 to 138 min with a mean of 62.4 min and median of 56 min. ASA classification ranged from 1 to 4, with a mean of 2.1. No significant blood loss was observed in any of the cases. There were no conversions to open surgery. All patients were discharged the same day of the operation. We were able to follow up with 100% of the hernias at 2 weeks, 88% at 6 months, 87% at 1 year, and 80% at 2 years. No recurrences were recorded at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or 2 years. There were no reports of chronic pain up to 2 years in any of the patients. These results indicate that r-TAPP inguinal hernia repair using Progrip without further fixation is safe, effective, and can be performed with minimal recurrences or chronic pain.

Background: Laparoscopic Incisional and Ventral Hernia Repair (LIVHR) is a safe and worldwide accepted procedure performed using absorbable tacks. The aim of the study was to evaluate recurrence rate in a long term follow-up and whether the results of laparoscopic IVH repair in the elderly (≥65 years old) are different with respect to results obtained in younger patients. Methods: One hundred and twenty-nine consecutive patients (74 women and 55 men, median age 67 years, range = 30-87 years) with ventral (N = 42, 32.5%) or post incisional (N = 87, 67.5%) hernia were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into two groups according to their age: group A (N = 55, 42.6%) aged <65 years and group B (N = 74, 57.4%) aged ≥65 years. Results: The mean operative time was not significantly different between groups (66.7 ± 37 vs. 74 ± 48.4 min, p = 0.4). To the end of 2016, seven recurrences had occurred (group A = 3, group B = 4, p = 1). Complications occurred in 8 (16%) patients in group A and 21 (28.3%) patients in group B. Conclusion: In conclusion, our results confirm that the use of absorbable tacks does not increase recurrence frequency and laparoscopic incisional and ventral repair is a safety procedure also in elderly patients.
