Abstract Purpose Laparoscopic treatment for acutely incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias is uncommon and controversial. In the present study, we assessed the safety and feasibility of transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair for the treatment of acutely incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias. Methods Patients with acutely incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias who underwent TAPP repair at the Department of Hernia and Abdominal Wall Surgery (Beijing Chaoyang Hospital) from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients’ characteristics, operation details, and postoperative complications were retrospectively analyzed. Results In total, 94 patients with acutely incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias underwent TAPP repair. The patients comprised 85 men and 9 women (mean age, 54.3 ± 13.6 years; mean operating time, 61.6 ± 17.7 min; mean hospital stay, 3.9 ± 2.2 days). No patients were converted to open surgery. Hernia reduction was successfully performed in all patients. The morbidity of complications was 20.2% (19/94). Two bowel resections were performed endoscopically. Nine (9.6%) patients avoided unnecessary bowel resections during laparoscopic procedures. All patients recovered well without severe complications. No recurrence or infection was recorded during a mean follow-up period of 26.8 ± 9.8 months. Conclusions TAPP appears to be safe and feasible for treatment of patients with acutely incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias. However, it requires performed by experienced surgeons in laparoscopic techniques.

Abstract Purpose As laparoscopic techniques and equipments improve, laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair has been gaining popularity. The objective of the study was to summarize 9 years of experience using a single-port micro-laparoscopic approach to repair pediatric inguinal hernias with a simple hernia needle. Methods 1880 children with inguinal hernias were enrolled using micro-laparoscopic surgery between June 2009 and 2018. All patients underwent high ligation surgery using a single-port micro-laparoscopic technique. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results All micro-laparoscopic surgeries were successfully performed in the 1880 patients, who ranged in age from 2 months to 14 years (3.66 ± 2.96 years) including 1622 males and 258 females. Among them, 1299 cases were unilateral hernias and 581 cases were bilateral hernias. The average operating time was 12.5 ± 3.5 min for a unilateral hernia and 20.5 ± 4.5 min for bilateral hernias. All patients were discharged 1–2 days after surgery, and the average length of their hospital stay was 2–4 days. Complications of knot reaction and pneumoscrotum occurred in 5 cases (0.27%) and 54 cases (2.87%), respectively, but these cases were properly managed, with no major impact on the operational outcomes. All patients were followed up for 3–65 months; there were 13 recurrent cases (0.69%). Conclusions Single-port micro-laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in children using a simple hernia needle is a reliable and minimally invasive procedure.

INTRODUCTION: Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgical procedures in pediatric surgery. In parallel with the advances in the field of medicine, various laparoscopic techniques have been developed in inguinal hernia repair. The Burnia technique is one of the latest published techniques and it is the cauterization of the inguinal hernia sac laparoscopically without using sutures in girls. The aim of this study is the investigation of the use of Burnia technique in clinical practice, and its postoperative outcomes. Any article concerning the use of this technique in Turkey has not been encountered. METHODS: The demographic features of patients, preoperative, peroperative, postoperative and follow-up results of 41 patients who had been operated with Burnia technique by a single surgeon within 2 years were reviewed retrospectively. Laparoscopically, the camera was first placed at an inclination of 30 degrees to the umbilical region using Hasson technique, and then, a single port was used for cauterization of the hernia sac. The Hernia sac was pulled into the abdominal cavity and cauterized. RESULTS: Burnia technique was applied to 62 inguinal hernia sacs in 41 girls. Their ages ranged from 1.5 to 16 years (median 36 months) with body weights ranging between 3.5 kg-40 kg (median 12 kg). Preoperatively 15 patients had right (37%), 19 patients left (46%), 7 patients bilateral inguinal hernias (17%). During surgery, 14 of the unilateral inguinal hernias were found to have a hernia sac on the contralateral side, and the rate of bilateral hernia increased to 51 percent. In one patient ovary was in the inguinal canal, and after its reduction, we proceeded with the operation Unexpectedly. in one patient, right ovarian torsion was detected which was detorsioned, and hernia surgery was performed in the same session. The duration of the operation was 5-35 min (median 15 min) for unilateral and 8-45 min (median 20 minutes) for bilateral hernias. None of these patients developed peroperative and postoperative complications. Follow-up time was minimum 10 months, and maximum 3 years. Recurrence was not detected. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Burnia technique seems to be effective and safe. The contralateral side and other intra-abdominal pathologies are explored. The cosmetic appearance is its another advantage. The operation time is very short due to the fact that only the hernia sac is cauterized. Comparison of this technique with other laparoscopic techniques is planned in the future study.

Abstract Background Transumbilical two-port laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure for the treatment of processus vaginalis patency in boys has been practising recent years. The applicable instruments and skills are still evolving. In this study, we used a self-made needle assisted by a disposable dissecting forceps to practise this minimal invasive method for patent processus vaginalis in boys. Its safety and effectiveness were studied. The methods for depth and orientation perceptions were analyzed. Methods From January 2020 to November 2020, boys characteristic of symtomatic patency of processus vaginalis were performed open surgery consecutively. From December 2020, the authors begun to propose transumbilical two-port laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure for this kind of boy patients. The open group included fifteen boys and the laparoscopic group included ten ones. The data of the patients age, constituent ratios of unilateral and bilateral patency, operating time, postoperative stay in hospital, follow-up time, conversion, postoperative complications were assessed. Throughout the laparoscopic process, the parallel and synchronous movements of lens pole and dissecting forceps were maintained. Vas deferens protrude was imagined as one of the point to form the triangular manipulation plane. Results There were no statistically significant difference between the laparoscopic group and the open group for the following items: age, operating time, the constituent ratios of unilateral or bilateral patency of processus vaginalis (P > 0.05). Postoperative stay in hospital and follow-up time of the laparoscopic group was significantly shorter than that of the open group (P = 0.0000). No laparoscopic case was converted to open surgery. After 10 cases of laparoscopic practice, orientation perception was established. There were no postoperative complications for all the patients. Conclusion Our preliminary experience suggested that umbilical two-port laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure is safe and convenient for patent processus vaginalis treatment in boys. It has the advantage of incision-hiding and can be manipulated like a solo-like surgery.

Background Omental wrap is a common cause of catheter obstruction. Current laparoscopic techniques for correcting obstruction include omentopexy and omentectomy. This study evaluates the efficacy of a new laparoscopic technique for revision of obstructed peritoneal dialysis catheters. Methods Between November 2005 and November 2006, the technique was applied in 18 patients (6 female, 12 male; median age 50 years, range 16 – 73 years) on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis with catheter malfunction secondary to omental wrap. Pneumoperitoneum was induced under general anesthesia. Three ports were inserted. The catheter was released from the omentum and repositioned in the pelvis. The omentum was then folded onto itself in a cephalad direction using silk sutures. This shortened the omentum. The risk of catheter migration was minimized with a polypropylene sling passed through the abdominal wall and around the catheter, then knotted subcutaneously. The sling allowed catheter removal without a new laparoscopy. The outcomes were prospectively evaluated. Results Median operating time was 90 minutes (range 35 – 160 minutes). Adhesiolysis was performed in 4 patients: 1 patient had port-site leakage of dialysate, which settled with abdominal rest; 1 patient had bleeding during adhesiolysis and laparoscopic hemostasis was successful; 1 patient had recurrent catheter obstruction 2 weeks post-operatively and was converted to hemodialysis; and 1 patient had recurrent malfunction secondary to small bowel wrap after 5.5 months; re-salvage was successful. The success rate of the first salvage procedure was 89%(16/18). The catheters were still functioning after a mean follow-up of 16.5 ± 6.3 months (range 0.5 – 24 months). The 1-year catheter survival rate was 83.3%. Conclusions Omental folding is a safe and effective technique for salvaging peritoneal dialysis catheters.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate and compare laparoscopic and conventional open procedures for bilateral inguinal hernia surgical repair, using clinical, intraoperative, and postoperative criteria. Methods: Forty-three patients with bilateral inguinal hernia were included in a retrospective study, between 2014–2017. All patients underwent conventional open or laparoscopic bilateral hernioplasty, and were divided into two groups: a conventional open group (COG) and a laparoscopy group (LG). Clinical, intraoperative, and postoperative outcomes were reviewed. Results: In the laparoscopic hernioplasty group, there was a significantly shorter hospitalization period (p = 0.026), less postoperative pain (p = 0.03), and a prompt return to work (p = 0.043) compared to the conventional open procedure. On the other hand, patients who underwent hernioplasty with the Progrip-type synthetic mesh developed a lower pain score, an earlier return to work, and a quick start to normal physical activities in comparison with other mesh types used for the treatment of bilateral inguinal hernias. For patients who underwent conventional open procedure, there was a significantly shorter operating time (p = 0.042). Conclusion: Laparoscopic bilateral inguinal hernioplasty is a time-consuming and technically demanding procedure. However, the current study underlines the benefits of this type of surgery. This technique presents comparable clinical, intraoperative, and postoperative results with the conventional open surgery.

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.

Giant inguinal hernias are typically described as those which reach patient’s mid-thigh level in upright position. These present a challenge to the surgeon as surgical repair is technically challenging. Although conventionally open repairs have been done for giant inguinal hernias more recently laparoscopic techniques are being adopted. Total extra peritoneal (TEP) and trans abdominal pre peritoneal (TAPP) are two common laparoscopic approaches used. Here we present a case of a 64-year-old patient with a long standing giant inguinal hernia. Hernia was repaired with a TEP approach and patient’s recovery was satisfactory.

Objective: To report initial experience of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) in Jakarta and evaluate the functional and oncology outcome. Material & Method: Between June 2007 until September 2008, we had done 9 times LRP surgery. All data is retrospectively taken and divided in three groups, i.e. pre-operative data (patient demography, pre-operative PSA, prostate volume, Gleason Score, clinical and functional staging), intra-operative data (intra-operative complication, conversion to open surgery, bleeding volume, and operating time), and post-operative data (post-operative complication, duration of urine catheter usage, duration of hospitalization, functional and oncology status). Results: Among nine subjects who underwent LRP, five subjects (55,55%) did not converted into open surgery. There are 2 subjects who gain their sexual potency and urine continence in one year post op. Only one subject is proven without biochemical failure in 1 year. Conclusion: We confirmed that radical prostatectomy can be performed with transperitoneal laparoscopic technique by a team that has been experienced in laparoscopic. Keywords: Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, functional result, oncological result.
