Abstract Background Elective repair of congenital inguinal hernia is the most common surgery performed by pediatric surgeons and is considered the treatment of choice. The exact technique and steps involved in the repair differs widely among pediatric surgeons, many surgeons open the roof of inguinal canal while preserving the external ring or opening it, this is called the modified Ferguson, s technique. In infants, the inguinal canal is short and virtually the internal and external rings lie over each other so many surgeons also like to perform the whole operation without opening the external oblique aponeurosis distal to the external ring, this technique is called the Mitchell Banks technique. Objective To compare both techniques regarding intraoperative time, incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications to pass our experience in a trial to reach an ideal surgical technique for congenital inguinal hernia repair. Patients and Methods In this study, 60 cases of congenital inguinal hernia were randomly selected and divided into two equal groups where group A underwent the repair with opening the external oblique aponeurosis and group B underwent the repair without opening the external oblique aponeurosis. Results As regard the postoperative complications, the patients who underwent the Ferguson’s technique experienced more postoperative pain with statistically significant more incidence of postoperative hydrocele than the Mitchell banks technique, no complications occurred postoperatively other than hydrocele in our study. Conclusion Our study results, we can approve that Mitchell Banks technique is easier, consumes less time than Ferguson’s technique with less incidence of postoperative complications and pain which can make this technique better for congenital inguinal hernia repair in children aging 2 years or less.

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.

Abstract Introduction: Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common operation performed in general surgery, especially in digestive field. Since the introduction of laparoscopic repair and application of synthetic mesh to treatment, the trends have changed in the last decade in treatment for inguinal hernia. The laparascopic trans-abdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) has a short learning cure. TAPP has many advantages, such as wide dissection, contralateral side checkup, treatment strangulated hernia and incarcerated hernia, a short learning cure has been the first choice for surgeons. Materials and Methods: Study subjects included 19 patients with 21 inguinal hernia cases treated by laparoscopic trans-abdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) technique at the Hue Central Hospital - Base 2 from 12/2018 though 3/2019. Descriptive and prospective follow-up study. Results: The mean age was 66,8 ± 14,35 years old. Strangulated hernia and incarcerated hernia respectively accounted for 4,8% and 9.5% of cases. The mean durations of unilateral inguinal hernia repair and bilateral inguinal repair were 65,3 ± 19,6 mins and 102,5 ± 12,5 mins, respectively. Mean duration of postoperative stay was 4,1 ± 1,6 days. 2 case (3.2%) with contralateral inguinal hernia were detected. At 3-months evaluation, there was no recurrence. Conclusion: TAPP is a safe and effective surgical technique; should be encouraged and widely applied in different levels hospitals. Keyword: inguinal hernia, TAPP, laparoscopic surgery, mesh.

Background: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair has been proven to be a safe and effective procedure for groin hernias. In recent years, many of the tertiary centers in Nepal have started performing laparoscopic hernia repair. With the availability of resources and the facilities, the laparoscopic repairs for inguinal hernias are going to be more accessible in near future in Nepal. The aim of this study was to compare the intraoperative events and postoperative complications of transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) techniques of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs.Methods: Out of 56 patients, 30 underwent TAPP and 26 TEP repairs for primary unilateral inguinal hernias and were prospectively analyzed. Patient demographics, past medical and surgical history, intraoperative, and postoperative events were recorded. Patients were followed-up for two years.Results: Demographic parameters were comparable in both the groups. The difference in mean operating time was statistically significant (longer in the TAPP group). Intraoperative events such as port-site bleeding and peritoneal tear were comparable in both groups. The immediate postoperative complications like skin ecchymosis, cord hematoma, and scrotal edema were comparable in both repairs.  Immediate postoperative pain was significantly lesser in TEP repair whereas the hospital stays and time to return to the normal physical activity were comparable in both groups.Conclusions: Both TAPP and TEP laparoscopic techniques are safe and effective for inguinal hernia repair. However, there are few advantages of TEP repair such as shorter duration of surgery and less postoperative pain.

ABSTRACT Background: Repair of inguinal hernia concomitant with cholecystectomy was rarely performed until more recently when laparoscopic herniorrhaphy gained more adepts. Although it is generally an attractive option for patients, simultaneous performance of both procedures has been questioned by the potential risk of complications related to mesh, mainly infection. Aim: To evaluate a series of patients who underwent simultaneous laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair and cholecystectomy, with emphasis on the risk of complications related to the mesh, especially infection. Methods: Fifty patients underwent simultaneous inguinal repair and cholecystectomy, both by laparoscopy, of which 46 met the inclusion criteria of this study. Results: In all, hernia repair was the first procedure performed. Forty-five (97,9%) were discharged within 24 h after surgery. Total mean cost of the two procedures performed separately ($2,562.45) was 43% higher than the mean cost of both operations done simultaneously ($1,785.11). Up to 30-day postoperative follow-up, seven (15.2%) presented minor complications. No patient required hospital re-admission, percutaneous drainage, antibiotic therapy or presented any other signs of mesh infection after three months. In long-term follow-up, mean of 47,1 months, 38 patients (82,6%) were revaluated. Three (7,8%) reported complications: hernia recurrence; chronic discomfort; reoperation due a non-reabsorbed seroma, one in each. However, none showed any mesh-related complication. Satisfaction questionnaire revealed that 36 (94,7%) were satisfied with the results of surgery. All of them stated that they would opt for simultaneous surgery again if necessary. Conclusion: Combined laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair and cholecystectomy is a safe procedure, with no increase in mesh infection. In addition, it has important advantage of reducing hospital costs and increase patient’ satisfaction.
