Background: The introduction of various open mesh and laparoscopic techniques has increased the interest in inguinal hernia surgery. But still controversy persists about the most effective inguinal hernia repair. The aim of this study was to compare the results of open Lichtenstein tension-free mesh technique and laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair for inguinal hernia.Methods: We considered 55 patients were enrolled between. Patients were divided into two groups, group A had open mesh repair and group B had laparoscopic TAPP repair of groin hernia. Time to full recovery and return to work, operative time, postoperative pain, hospital postoperative stay, complications and recurrence rate were recorded in both groups.Results: Significant difference was observed in the median time to return to normal activities in TAPP group versus in open approach. The mean hospital postoperative stay was 1-2 days in both groups. On follow up of our patients we found that in group A 3 patients had seroma, no haematoma discovered among our patients, 3 patients had wound infection, all previous complications were managed conservatively, in group B none of all 30 patients develop seroma, haematoma or infection. In group A 4 patients who were had bilateral hernia develop recurrence, while in group B we had no recurrence among the patients.Conclusions: Laparoscopic (TAPP) approach to inguinal hernia repair is considered safe and effective as excellent alternative to conventional surgery repair. It is associated with less postoperative pain, hospital postoperative stay, postoperative complications, and recurrence, earlier return to normal activities.

Background: In this study we investigated the differences between tension free versus not tension free inguinal hernia repair in occurrence of various postoperative complications. Methods: The study included 65 male patients with direct or indirect inguinal hernia operated at the Department of Abdominal and General Surgery,  between March 2012 and March 2014. The patients were divided into two groups. Evaluated were postoperative complications.. Results: No statistically significant differences in incidences of postoperative complications between two groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Obtained results show that tension-free mesh repair is equivalent to the not tension free hernia repair method with regards of postoperative complications, severity of postoperative pain and ambulance.

Background: Post-operative pain is a disabling complication of inguinal hernia repair. Sutures that are used to anchor the mesh are blamed for tissue tension and nerve entrapment leading to postoperative pain. Self-fixating mesh, a bicomponent mesh with resorbable polylactic acid gripping system can produce a tension-free repair without sutures, reducing the potential of post-operative pain. The objectives of the study were to compare postoperative pain, the operating time and the efficacy in terms of recurrence among patients undergoing Lichtenstein’s inguinal hernia repair with self-fixating mesh and conventional polypropylene mesh.  Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted among 120 patients. Half of them underwent Lichtenstein’s inguinal hernia repair with self-fixating mesh which did not require sutures and the other half with conventional polypropylene mesh which were anchored with polypropylene sutures. Time taken to complete surgery was noted. Postoperative pain was charted using a visual analogue scale at 15 days, 3 months, 6 months and at 1 year during the follow up.Results: Median postoperative pain score and operating time was significantly lower in patients who underwent repair with self-fixating mesh. None of the patients had recurrence at the end of 1 year follow up period.  Conclusions: Self-fixating mesh can reduce the postoperative pain and the operating time in patients undergoing Lichtenstein’s inguinal hernia repair when compared with a conventional polypropylene mesh. The self-fixating mesh is as efficacious as conventional polypropylene mesh in preventing recurrences.

Background: In the practice of General Surgery, hernia repair is the second most common procedure after appendectomy. Several methods have been developed over the years to try to improve hernia repair. Good result can be expected using Bassini's, McVay's, Shouldice's techniques provided the exact nature of hernia is recognized and the repair is done without tension using healthy tissue. The introduction of synthetic mesh started a new era in hernia surgery. The use of synthetic mesh repair of primary and recurrent hernias has gradually gained acceptance among surgeons. Objective: To find out the outcome and complications of open inguinal hernia repair with prolene mesh. Methods: This is a prospective cross sectional study conducted at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, from December, 2011 to May, 2012. One hundred patients of inguinal hernia admitted in different surgical units of BSMMU, Dhaka for elective surgery were studied. We have given 1 gm ijv Cephradine per operatively and then 500 gm cephradine ijv 6 hourly for 24 hours followed by oral form of Cephradine for next 5 days. Polypropylene mesh of 11 cm x 7 cm size was used in all cases. All the operations were done by open tension free prolene mesh repair technique. Patients were followed for one year to see the outcome. Results: Out of 100 cases of inguinal hernia, 71 patients (71%) had indirect inguinal hernia and 29 cases (29%) had direct inguinal hernia; 90 cases (90%) were primary hernia and only 10 cases (10%) were recurrent hernia; 58 cases were right sided, 34 cases (34%) were left sided and 8 cases (8%) were bilateral. Complications of mesh repair of groin hernia in this study included wound infection (5%), scrotal oedema (2%), mesh infection (0%), scrotal hematoma (2%), echymoces of peri-incisional skin (5%), early wound and groin pain (7%), chronic inguinodynia (2%), hernia recurrence (1%). Conclusion: In the present study an attempt is made to evaluate the outcome of patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair by prolene mesh. The results confirm that Lichtenstein tension free mesh repair of inguinal hernia is safe and reliable for both primary and recurrent groin hernia, with less recurrence rate. Patient's compliance was good with minimum morbidity. Journal of Surgical Sciences (2018) Vol. 22 (1): 21-24

To review our experience and outcomes after inguinal hernia repair using the lightweight self-adhering sutureless mesh “Adhesix™” and demonstrate the safety and efficacy of this mesh. This is a 3-year retrospective study that included 143 consecutive patients who underwent 149 inguinal hernia repairs at our department of surgery. All hernias were repaired using a modified Lichtenstein technique. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative data were prospectively collected. Incidence of chronic pain, postoperative complications, recurrence, and patient satisfaction were assessed three years postoperatively by conducting a telephone survey. We had 143 patients with a mean age of 58 years (17–84), who underwent 149 hernia repairs using the Adhesix™ mesh. Ninety-two per cent (131 patients) were males. Only 10 patients (7%) had a postoperative pain for more than three years. In our series, neither age nor gender was predictive of postoperative pain. Only one patient had a hematoma lasting for more than one month and only four patients (2.8%) had a recurrence of their hernia within three years of their initial surgery. Ninety per cent of the patient expressed their satisfaction when surveyed three years after their surgery. In conclusion, the use of the self-adhering sutureless mesh for inguinal hernia repair has been proving itself as effective as the traditional mesh. Adhesix™ is associated with low chronic pain rate, recurrence rate, and postoperative complications rate, and can be safely adopted as the sole technique for inguinal hernia repair.
