Background: Over the past years, several surgical techniques have been evolved, among which total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair is the laparoscopic technique which is more popular now.Objective: To evaluate the outcome of totally extra peritoneal laparoscopic hernioplasty in terms of operation time, hospital stay and complications.Methods: The prospectively designed descriptive study was carried out at Department of Surgery Unit III, Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital from February 2014 to April 2015. Forty seven consecutive patients above 15 years of age underwent totally extra peritoneal repairs for inguinal hernias. The selection criteria were reducible primary or recurrent, unilateral, direct and indirect inguinal hernias. All the relevant details of each patient were noted subsequently and analyzed statistically using Statistical Program for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 15.Results: The mean age of patient was 49±2.5 years. The mean operation time was 65±5.3 minutes. There were no serious complications except four (8.5%) cases of groin seroma which resolved after single time aspiration. Three (6.3%) cases had developed recurrence, two (4.2%) had developed hydrocele in a median follow up period of 6±1.5 (range, 3-9months). The mean inpatient hospital stay was 1.7±0.2 (range, 1-2.4days).Conclusion: Total extra peritoneal hernioplasty is safe and feasible with acceptable complications and recurrence rates.Journal of Kathmandu Medical College, Vol. 5, No. 4, Issue 18, Oct.-Dec., 2016, page: 120-123

Aim: The outcome comparison of total extraperitoneal versus mesh repair for inguinal hernia. Study design: Quasi experimental study. Place and duration of study: Department of Surgery, M. Islam Teaching Hospital, Gujranwala from March 2018 to March 2019. Methodology: After the approval of hospital ethical committee, a total of 50 patients were included and randomly divided into two groups equally. Group A (Total extraperitoneal), Group B (Mesh repair). An informed consent was taken from every patient about operative procedure and the outcome. A detailed history of the patient i.e. clinical examination, routine investigations (CBC, Urine R/E, urea, creatinine) and some specific investigations (chest X-ray, ECG and ultrasound abdomen and prostate) was done for surgery. All data of patients was collected on proforma and was analyzed with the help of a computer SPSS programme 20. Results: The mean age of patients was 34.22±11.54 years in group A and 35.63±11.25 years in group B. All male and female patients included in this study in both groups. Twelve (48%) of patients were direct inguinal hernia in group A 13(22%) were in group B and 14(56%) patients were in group A and 11(44%) patients were in group B. The mean±SD postoperative hospital stay was 24.48±4.62 in group A and 34.65±12.26 hours in group B (p 0.001). The mean±SD postoperative recovery time in weeks was 2.18±0.43 in group A and 2.90±0.46 weeks in group B (p 0.001). Only 2 (4%) patient had postoperative infection on first week and 4 (8%) patients had infection respectively. No recurrence was seen in group A and only 3% recurrence was in group B. Conclusion: It is concluded that group A had shorter hospital stay, recovery time, postoperative time and less infection rate as compared to group B. In group A 13% patients had severe pain and in group B 25% patients. Keywords: Inguinal Hernia, Total extraperitoneal, Mesh 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.

Inguinal hernia is a common disease affecting about 5-10% of the population. About 370 000 inguinal hernia repair per year is registered in Russia. Surgeons have reduced recurrence of hernias to a minimum after the widespread introduction of non-tension hernia repair. However, today other complications of inguinal hernias have become prevalent: infection, pain and paresthesia in the scrotum, pathospermia. Opinion about the negative impact on spermatogenesis of both herniation and surgery for hernia is still controversial. This article provides an overview of modern foreign and Russian literature on the аssociation of different types of inguinal hernia repair with pathospermia.

To investigate the development and current status of the treatment of pediatric indirect inguinal hernia. Inguinal hernias include indirect hernias and direct inguinal hernias, but there are almost indirect inguinal hernias in children . Pediatric indirect inguinal hernia that the most common disease in pediatric surgery is almost caused by patent processus vaginali which incidence ranges from 0.8% to 4.4%.The treatment of pediatric indirect inguinal hernia reflects the process of pediatric surgery development, which from conservative non-surgical treatment to high ligation of the longitudinal incision hernia sac. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of medical level in China, laparoscopic technique has been applied in hospitals all over China, and laparoscopic high ligation of indirect inguinal hernia sac has become the standard for the treatment of pediatric indirect inguinal hernia.

Background: Herniorrhaphy and hernioplasty are the two most common modalities used with different degree of success and complication rates in the treatment of inguinal hernia. Several studies show that use of mesh is superior to the non-mesh operations in inguinal hernia surgery.It is generally believed that the use of biomaterials should be limited to non-infected surgical fields.Now the concept regarding use of mesh in complicated hernias is changing as shown by many studies. Current study is being planned to observe the outcomes of the mesh hernioplasty in treatment of complicated inguinal hernias in emergency so that in future appropriate and safe technique may be suggested for repair of complicated hernias in emergency setting. Objectives: To compare the outcome of hernioplasty and herniorrhaphy in emergency for the treatment of complicated (Irreducible/obstructed) inguinal hernias regarding wound infection and hospital stay. Material & Methods:… Study Design: Randomized control trial. Setting: Surgical ward, Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Rahim yar khan. Period:09 months from 01-01-2016 to 30-09-2016. Sample Size: A total of 64 patients with 32 patients were included in each group, with confidence level of 95% and power of 80% and anticipated mean level of hospital stay in group 1 of 5±3.4 days versus 3±2.1 days in group 2. Sampling Technique: Non-probability, consecutive sampling. Results: In this study there were total 64 cases with 32 in each group. The mean age was 41.69±11.06 years and the mean duration of hernia obstruction was 12.83±4.97 hours. There was no significant difference in terms of age, duration of hernia and hernial obstruction between both groups. Seroma was seen in 5 (7.81%) out of 64 cases while wound infection was seen in 8 (12.50%) of cases. Seroma was seen in 2 (6.25%) out of 30 cases in herniorrhaphy as compared to 3 (9.38%) out of 32 cases with hernioplasty with p value of 0.64. Wound infection was seen in equally 4 (12.50%) out of 32 cases in both groups with p value of 1.0. Duration of hospital stay was 4.66±1.36 in patients with herniorrhaphy as compared to 4.53±1.37 days with hernioplasty with p value= 0.82. There was no significant difference in terms of age groups, duration of hernia and its obstruction between both groups regarding seroma. There was also no significant association among any of the confounding factors regarding the wound infection and length of the hospital stay between the both groups. Conclusion: We can perform hernioplasty as compared to herniorrhaphy for complicated inguinal hernia with similar complications and better success rates in the same emergency setting.

This study analyzed the results of treatment of patients with inguinal hernias, with an assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of endovideosurgical hernioplasty techniques. The clinical study used the data of 1317 patients with inguinal hernias. The results revealed that the totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair had some advantages over laparoscopic hernioplasty, such as a shorter duration of surgery (43 15 min), mild pain on a visual analog scale, and an average bed-day after surgery. Complications were diagnosed in 16 (1.2%) patients, and most had ClavienDindo grade II complications. Relapses were detected in 7 (0.5%) cases. Thus, endoscopic hernioplasty (laparoscopic and totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernioplasty) was the preferred surgery for patients with bilateral inguinal hernia, recurrent hernia after traditional hernioplasty, and metabolic syndrome and young people of working age. The use of a modified technique of totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernioplasty with a clear understanding of the multifascial structure of the anterior abdominal wall may reduce the risks of both intraoperative and postoperative complications and increase the cost-effectiveness of treatment of patients with inguinal hernias, allowing us to obtain good results.

AbstractRecurrent pediatric inguinal hernia is relatively rare. In a large series, the recurrence rates vary from 0.3 to 1.2%. In a university hospital with surgical service for a wide spectrum of sick pediatric patients, the real recurrence rate may be 3 to 6%. Recurrence manifests typically 6 months after first repair. Current evidence indicates that recurrence rates in open and laparoscopic repair are similar. Laparoscopic repairs are, however, still performed by a minority of skilled pediatric surgeons, whereas the majority of pediatric surgeons rely on open repair not least because of the assumed lower risk of recurrence. After repair of an indirect hernia, the majority of recurrences (97%) are indirect, whereas in rare cases the recurrence turns out to be a formerly undiagnosed direct or femoral hernia. In Children's Hospital of Helsinki, Finland, recurrence rate from 2012 to 2016 was 2.8% and operations for recurrent hernias comprised 3.3% of the total. From 1991 to 2017, a total of 130 operations for recurrent hernias were performed with open inguinal approach (n = 75, 58%), laparoscopy (n = 49, 38%), and laparotomy (n = 4, 4%). One teenage patient underwent a Lichtenstein Prolene net repair. A recurrent inguinal hernia can be repaired either with an open or laparoscopic approach. In laparoscopy, the nature of the recurrent hernia can be clarified and an immediate repair performed either by laparoscopic or open technique. In expert hands new laparoscopic techniques using muscular arch, lateral umbilical ligament, iliopubic tract, and division of the sac may be an alternative to a simple purse-string closure.
