Abstract Aim Repair of inguinal hernia is one of the most common operations in general surgery in industrialized countries. Isolated spermatic cord liposarcoma is a very rare soft tissue tumor. Despite standardized diagnostic algorithms for inguinal hernia, it could be difficult to predict such a rare finding. Material and Methods We report a case of inadvertent inguinal liposarcoma excision during hernia surgery in a 72-year-old male patient. Except for polyposis coli there were no further illnesses. Results After a minimal invasive transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair of a symptomatic inguinal hernia last year a persistent scrotal swelling developed. Computed tomography (CT) showed a protrusion of fatty tissue into the scrotal sac. Diagnosis of scrotal hernia was made. We performed an open Lichtenstein procedure. The final pathologic examination revealed a highly differentiated liposarcoma. Staging was completed and the case was presented to a multidisciplinary sarcoma tumor board at our institution. As recommended, a inguinal reoperation was performed with wide excision. Conclusions Although a very rare condition, spermatic cord liposarcoma should be considered as a possible differential diagnosis for inguinal hernia surgery.

Description of a new method of radical surgery for an inguinal hernia, which probably prevents, in A.'s opinion, the development of relapses and other complications after this city of operations (suppuration, hematomas). After the usual incision of the soft tissues parallel to the inguinal ligament, isolation of the spermatic cord and hernial sac, and resection of the latter, two rows of sutures are applied.

Stiasnу, H. K Describes his method of radical inguinal hernia surgery, which he recommended for cases where a simple Bassi operation is not applicable due to the weakness of the fascia and abdominal muscles, to strengthen the weakest parts of the inguinal canal the lower inguinal triangle and the site of the spermatic cord exit , the hernial sac, after its isolation from the latter, is cut off as high as possible, and the cord after the incision of the internal oblique muscle of the abdomen is pushed upward at an angle of 45-90 .

Anatomical conditions play an important role in the results of any operation, including herniotomy. On the other hand, however, we see that whatever these conditions may be, the imperfection of some methods, e.g., the same Bascini method, remains unchanged. The frequent complaints of operated patients about heaviness in the groin, pain in the testicular and spermatic cord after operations performed lege artis according to this method convince us of this. All this prompts us to turn surgeons' attention to the method of inguinal hernia surgery, once proposed by the late Prof. I.A. Praxin, a method based on the idea of meeting all the requirements of anatomy and physiology, imitating nature itself in detail.

Purpose – to analyze condition of patients after surgical treatment of inguinal hernias by laparoscopic and open methods. Materials and methods. A retrospective review of medical histories and outpatient charts of all patients who underwent inguinal hernia surgery at the Kyiv City Clinical Hospital No. 1 from January 2018 to July 2020 was conducted. Results. During the above period of time in our hospital open hernioplasty was performed in 86 patients, laparoscopic hernioplasty – 138 patients. With open hernioplasty, the average duration of surgical treatment was 40±12 minutes. The laparoscopic technique was 35±12 minutes. The length of hospital stay was significantly longer in the group of patients with the open method (48±12 hours) than in the group of laparoscopic plastic surgery (12±3 hours). From the group of patients who underwent open hernioplasty, 62 patients complained of long-term pain syndrome, from the group of laparoscopy – 12 patients. The cosmetic appearance was dissatisfied with 34 patients in the open access group and only 2 patients in the laparoscopic plastic group. Postoperative complications were observed in 34 patients who underwent surgical treatment through open access, and in 15 patients – by laparoscopy. Conclusions. The laparoscopic approach of inguinal hernia surgery is superior to open access, as it reduces the length of hospital stay, postoperative recovery, improves the aesthetic effect of the operation, reduces the frequency of infection of incisions. According to the results of the study, this technique gives a better result in the early postoperative period, a lower percentage of chronic pain and a higher degree of patient satisfaction compared to open access with the same low recurrence rate. Therefore, in our opinion, laparoscopic access to hernioplasty is the optimal method of treatment and can be recommended as a method of choosing inguinal hernia surgery. Postoperative assessment of the quality of life of patients after treatment of inguinal hernia by laparoscopic and open methods. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local ethics committee of all participating institution. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. No conflict of interest was declared by the authors. Key words: inguinal hernia, laparoscopy, open access surgery, analysis of methods, operation.
