Open Mesh Repair

Background: In the practice of General Surgery, hernia repair is the second most common procedure after appendectomy. Several methods have been developed over the years to try to improve hernia repair. Good result can be expected using Bassini's, McVay's, Shouldice's techniques provided the exact nature of hernia is recognized and the repair is done without tension using healthy tissue. The introduction of synthetic mesh started a new era in hernia surgery. The use of synthetic mesh repair of primary and recurrent hernias has gradually gained acceptance among surgeons. Objective: To find out the outcome and complications of open inguinal hernia repair with prolene mesh. Methods: This is a prospective cross sectional study conducted at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, from December, 2011 to May, 2012. One hundred patients of inguinal hernia admitted in different surgical units of BSMMU, Dhaka for elective surgery were studied. We have given 1 gm ijv Cephradine per operatively and then 500 gm cephradine ijv 6 hourly for 24 hours followed by oral form of Cephradine for next 5 days. Polypropylene mesh of 11 cm x 7 cm size was used in all cases. All the operations were done by open tension free prolene mesh repair technique. Patients were followed for one year to see the outcome. Results: Out of 100 cases of inguinal hernia, 71 patients (71%) had indirect inguinal hernia and 29 cases (29%) had direct inguinal hernia; 90 cases (90%) were primary hernia and only 10 cases (10%) were recurrent hernia; 58 cases were right sided, 34 cases (34%) were left sided and 8 cases (8%) were bilateral. Complications of mesh repair of groin hernia in this study included wound infection (5%), scrotal oedema (2%), mesh infection (0%), scrotal hematoma (2%), echymoces of peri-incisional skin (5%), early wound and groin pain (7%), chronic inguinodynia (2%), hernia recurrence (1%). Conclusion: In the present study an attempt is made to evaluate the outcome of patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair by prolene mesh. The results confirm that Lichtenstein tension free mesh repair of inguinal hernia is safe and reliable for both primary and recurrent groin hernia, with less recurrence rate. Patient's compliance was good with minimum morbidity. Journal of Surgical Sciences (2018) Vol. 22 (1): 21-24

Introduction: A Hernia is the protrusion of part of the abdominal contents beyond the abdominal wall's normal connes. In this study, an attempt is made to compare the results of two different modalities of hernia repair–Lichtenstein repair and repair of hernia with Polypropylene hernia system. Aim: The study aims to ascertain the Polypropylene hernia system's safety and benets for hernia repair against conventional Lichtenstein tension-free mesh repair technique. Materials and methods: The prospective clinical study comprises 30 patients presenting with inguinal hernia attending OPD and admitted to the General Surgery Department of King George Hospital, Visakhapatnam, during the study period of September 2018 to October 2020. Results: Age distribution between 10-90, most of the 50-70 age group (14 cases). Visual analog scale (VAS) score for PMR 4.55 ± 1.18 and LMR 6.06 1.27 (p-value <0.05). Wound infection for PMR 1 case and LMR 2 cases. Duration of surgery for PMR 65.40 ± 7.84 and LMR 51.33 ± 13.51 (p-value <0.05). Type of surgery and duration of hospital stay for PMR 4.93 ± 1.27 LMR 6.73 ± 2.12. Type of surgery and return to work for PMR 5.93 ± 1.27 and LMR 7.73 ± 2.12(p-value <0.05).Recurrence in PMR 0 % and LMR 6.67%. Conclusion: PHS repair is superior to Lichtenstein mesh repair about safe, tension-free method, shorter hospital Stay, early return to work, least recurrence rates, and a high subjective success rate and satisfaction rate.

History Of

Amyand’s hernia is a rare pathology of an appendix with or without inflammation within the hernia sac is named after the French born English surgeon Dr. Claudius Amyand. We hereby present a case report of this rare entity known as a type 2 Amyand’s hernia. A 64 years old male, who had had a left-sided inguinal hernia for the previous 5 years, presented with a 2-day-history of fever, pain, vomiting, and irreducibility of the hernia. Upon exploration an irreducible inguinal hernia with appendix as its content was identified. Appendectomy was performed followed by a tension free mesh repair of the underlying hernia. Consequently, our recommendation is that the decision to perform an appendectomy and/or to use mesh to repair hernias should always be individualized.
