Open Inguinal Hernia Repair

Abstract Aim Chronic postherniorraphy pain occurs in 8-25% of patients undergoing groin hernioplasty with mesh insertion. The most common cause for inguinodynia is neuropathy resulting from nerve damage or entrapment during mesh fixation. With wide mesh insertion there is often a conflict between upper prosthesis margin and an iliohypogastric nerve. The aim of this study is to present a routine elective iliohypogastric neurectomy in Lichtenstein groin hernia repair for prevention of chronic inguinodynia. Material and Methods Between 2018 and 2020, 398 patients were admitted for open inguinal hernia repair. 218 patients underwent a Lichtenstein repair with transection of iliohypogastric nerve before implantation of 10x14 polypropylene mesh (IH group). In the control group of 180 patients all nerves were spared (C group). Follow-up was conducted on 1 POD,1 month, and 1 year after surgery. Results 1 month after a surgery a pain was reported in 24 (11%) patients in IH group (2.9% severe; 8.1% moderate; 89% no pain), and 48 (26.7%) patients in C group (3.9% severe; 22.8% moderate; 73.3% no pain). 1 year after a surgery a persistent pain was reported in 1 (0.4%) patient in IH group, and in 5 (2.8%) patients in C group. An incidence of inguinodynia was significantly lower after iliohypogastric neurectomy (0.5% vs. 2.8%; p < 0.001). Conclusions Routine neurectomy of iliohypogastric nerve appears to be an effective technique in chronic inguinodynia after open mech repair for inguinal hernias. Iliohypogastric nerve resection allows to place a flat synthetic mesh with wide coverage of myopectineal orifice with no need for additional mesh trimming.

Open Mesh Repair

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

Abstract Aim Evidence about factors influencing quality of life after inguinal hernia surgery is scarce. This study aimed to identify predictors of low Quality of Life (QoL) after open inguinal hernia repair, to guide practice and inform patients at high risk. Material and Methods Prospective multicentric cohort study including consecutive patients undergoing elective open inguinal hernia repair in Portuguese hospitals (October-December 2019). The primary outcome was Quality of Life at 3 months after surgery, using the EuraHS-QoL score (higher score correlates with lower QoL). Low QoL was defined as the higher EuraHS-QoL score tertile and multivariate logistic regression was used to identify predictors. Results 893 patients were included from 33 hospitals. The majority were men (89.9% [800/891]), had unilateral hernias 88.7% (774/872) and the most common surgical technique was Lichtenstein’s repair (52.9% [472/893]). The median QoL score was 24 (IQR 10-40) before surgery and 2 (IQR 0-10) at 3 months after surgery, showing significant improvement (p < 0.001). After adjustment, low QoL at 3 months was associated with low preoperative QoL (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.21-2.57, p = 0.003), non-absorbable mesh fixation (OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.12-2.41, p = 0.011), severe immediate postoperative pain (OR 2.90, 95% CI 1.66-5.11, p < 0.001) and minor postoperative complications (OR 2.23, 95% CI 1.30-3.84, p = 0.004). Conclusions This study supports the use of the EuraHS-QoL score preoperatively to inform consent. Although significant improvement in QoL is expected after surgery, high scores before surgery are associated with low postoperative QoL. Caution should be taken with non-absorbable mesh fixation and immediate postoperative pain control should be optimised.

Hernia Mesh Repair

Inguinal hernia mesh repair is one of the most frequent operations performed worldwide. The Lichtenstein technique and its various modifications are the most popular operations for groin hernia repair. The rate of surgical site infection (SSI) following inguinal hernia repair ranges between 0 and 14% in various series. Most of these infections developed early postoperatively. The incidence of late mesh infection following open inguinal hernia repair still remains unclear and highly variable. Late deep mesh infections are relatively rare specially after more than 10 years. The most common pathogens reported in the literature are E. coli and St. aureus. The infection is treated by conservative means initially but in case of failure then the mesh should be removed surgically. A unique case of a patient with very late (chronic) mesh infection is presented. The infection was due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which occurred 14 years after the initial operation and presented as subcutaneous fistula.
