Abstract Background: In terms of the need for mesh fixation in total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (TEP), overseas data revealed no significant difference in the recurrence rate between patients with and without fixation. Moreover, there is no information available on this treatment outcome from Japan. We aimed to analyze the outcomes of nonfixation TEP with those of fixation at our institute.Methods: In May 2016, the nonfixation TEP technique was launched. The fixation group (165 patients) was compared to the nonfixation group (195 patients). Bilateral, large, and impaction cases were eliminated from the corrective comparison, and the outcomes for the fixation group (80 patients) and the non-fixation group (111 patients) were compared.Results: One patient in the nonfixation group experienced recurrence. It was a hernia case with a large orifice. In the fixation group, seroma was more prevalent. There was no recurrence and no significance in surgical complications in the correction comparison. The nonfixation group had a shorter operation time and stayed in the hospital for a shorter period after surgery.Conclusions: The nonfixation TEP was deemed adequate, at least for typical hernia cases.

Abstract Background inguinal hernia repair is the most common procedure in general and visceral surgery worldwide. Several studies have shown that laparoscopic repair offers the advantage of minimally invasive surgery to the patient. The mesh can be placed without fixation or can be fixed into place with tuckers. Aim of the Work this study aimed to compare mesh fixation versus non-fixation in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair of inguinal hernia, as regards the operation time, hospitalization, postoperative complication, recurrence and chronic pain. Patients and Methods sixty adult males with inguinal hernia were repaired with laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair, divided into; mesh fixation group (n = 35) versus non-fixation group (n = 25), and certain parameters were assessed during the operative, postoperative and follow-up periods. Results mean operation time and mean hospital stay time were significantly higher in mesh fixation group than non-fixation group. VAS scores 2days, 3months, and 6months postoperative were less for non-fixation group. Non-significant difference was found between both groups regarding intraoperative injury, hernia recurrence, wound seroma, mesh infection, chronic pain, return to physical activity. Conclusion TAPP inguinal hernioplasty without mesh fixation does not increase recurrence rate, but reduces operative duration, hospital stay duration and decreases the incidence of postoperative pain.

Laboratory Investigations

Background: Inguinal hernia affects both men and women but is much more common in men who comprise over 90% of operated patients.  The purpose of this study was to determine whether elimination of tacking the mesh during endoscopic inguinal hernia repair results in decreased postoperative pain or complications, or both, without increasing the incidence of hernia recurrence.Methods: Patients age between 18 to 70 yrs, willing for laparoscopic surgery, suitable for elective laparoscopic surgery were included in the study. TEP or TAPP endoscopic inguinal hernia repairs would be performed with the patient under general anesthesia. Data collection have done by using a structured pre-prepared case performa. The patient evaluated both by radiological and laboratory investigations both pre-operatively and post-operatively.Results: There is no major significant difference in pain at 1 month after operation in both the group. Recurrence was higher among patient having mesh fixation and it was not statistically significant. Wound infection was occurring more among without fixation group and it was not statistically significant. Urinary retention was reported more among without fixation group and it was not statistically significant.  Conclusions: Thus, it was concluded that there is no significant difference in recurrence rate in the both study group either with fixation or without fixation. There is no significant difference in pain at one month in the both study group either with fixation or without fixation. There is more pain (visual analogue scale more than two) at three months after operation in fixation group as compared to without fixation group. There is also high cost in fixation group as compared to without fixation group.

OBJECTIVE. Comparative analysis of transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and total extraperitoneal (TEP) plastic surgeries was made in case of inguinal hernia repair. MATERIAL AND METHODS. Patients (n =236) underwent surgery at the period from 2012 till 2016. The TAPP was performed in 114 (48,3 %) patients and TEP was carried out in 122 (51,7 %). Clinical analysis of results was made in two groups. RESULTS. The research didn’t show any significant difference in the rate of intra- and postoperative complications and recurrences, but their structure varied. However, length of operation was less in case of one-sided hernia in TAPP group, although it was less in case of two-sided hernia in TEP group. An expression of pain syndrome was reliably lower in TEP group. CONCLUSIONS. Both methods demonstrated similar results and could be applied in treatment of inguinal hernias.

The review is devoted to the treatment methods of inguinal hernia. Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common operations in the world and is performed on more than 20 million patients per year. Recurrence rates of inguinal hernias after different types of surgical interventions range from 10 to 15%. The use of synthetic materials reduced the rates of hernia recurrence on average to 1-5%. Currently there are traditional tissue-based techniques, open tension-free mesh hernia repair, and laparoscopic mesh hernioplasty. Nowadays tension-free repair with synthetic mesh is a technique of choice for inguinal hernia repair. The emphasis has been placed on endoscopic methods of inguinal hernia prosthetic repair. According to the literature, laparoscopic repair is associated with low rates of wound infection and fewer haematomas, which leads to early resumption of everyday activities compared with Lichtenstein hernia repair. The paper discusses two standardized endoscopic methods for inguinal hernia treatment, namely laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal patch (TAPP) and total extraperitoneal (TEP) repair. Analysis of the literature has shown that criteria of necessity and method of mesh fixation during TAPP procedure were not completely identified. However, a number of researches have demonstrated that TAPP technique without mesh fixation proved to be a safe procedure which can be used in most patients with unilateral and bilateral inguinal hernia showing no increase in postoperative complications and low recurrence rates.

Summary Total extraperitoneal hernioplasty (TEP) has become increasingly used by surgeons. The TEP procedure is technically more challenging due to space constraints and has a higher learning curve. Chronic groin pain after inguinal hernia repair has become the dominant outcome investigated rather than recurrence. We aimed to evaluate the rate of chronic groin pain after TEP inguinal hernia repair performed at the Department of Surgical Oncology in G. Stranski University Hospital – Pleven. The procedures performed totaled 36. There was one conversion, and the patient was excluded from the study because the procedure performed was not laparoscopic. Distribution according to inguinal hernia type was: 41.7% - indirect hernia (15), 36.1% - direct hernia (13), 13.9% combined (5), and 8.3% femoral (3). Twenty-eight of the patients (80%) had preoperative pain. Two of the patients with chronic groin pain had had their meshes fixed with tacks (14.3% from the tack group with p=0.7). Our study showed that the TEP procedure is a safe, feasible operation with minimal risk for complications. Using tacks for mesh fixation is associated with higher rates of chronic groin pain, but it does not affect the recurrence rate, which correlates with the literature review data.

Abstract Background Pediatric inguinal hernia (PIH) is a common disease in children. Laparoscopic hernia repair (LHR) has developed rapidly in recent years, but there are still different opinions compared with traditional open hernia repair (OHR). The purpose of this study was to compare the advantages and disadvantages of LHR and OHR in the treatment of pediatric inguinal hernia. Methods We performed a retrospective review of all children (< 14 years) who underwent repair of inguinal hernia in the pediatric surgery center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2015 to December 2015. We collected the medical records of all the children and analyzed the clinical characteristics, operation-related information and follow-up. Results In the OHR group, 202 cases underwent unilateral inguinal hernia repair, and 43 cases underwent bilateral inguinal hernia repair. In the LHR group, 168 cases underwent unilateral inguinal hernia repair, and 136 cases underwent bilateral inguinal hernia repair. There was a significant difference in the operation time between the two groups, but there were no significant differences in postoperative hospitalization time and incidence of ipsilateral recurrent hernia between the two groups. The incidence rates of metachronous contralateral hernia (MCH) and surgical site infection in LHR group were significantly lower than those in the OHR group. Conclusion Our study shows that compared with OHR, LHR has the advantages of concealed incision, minimal invasiveness, reduced operation time, detection of contralateral patent processus vaginalis, and reduced incidence of MCH. In conclusion, LHR is safe and effective in the treatment of pediatric indirect inguinal hernia.
