Background: Trans abdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) a novel approach for inguinal hernia was introduced by Arregui (1991) and Dion in early 1990’s has brought the revolutionary change in the era of hernia surgery over open preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair procedure introduce by Stoppa. Based on this we have done single institution retrospective study of TAPP and open preperitoneal procedure for inguinal hernia.Methods: This study was single institution retrospective study, where we have analyzed the data of 93 male and 7 female patients out of which 50 underwent standard TAPP procedure and 50 patients who underwent open preperitoneal procedure for inguinal hernia, with median 1 year of follow up. Their data analyzed for demographics, surgical site occurrence and short terms recurrence.Results: 100 patients with mean age of 55 years, median ASA of 1, ratio of left: right: bilateral for open 18:30:2 and for laparoscopic 26:20:4. Mean time for surgery was 102.3 min for open and 142.4 mins for TAPP. There was surgical site infection in 3 patients operated by open procedure and 2 patients in TAPP procedure. 4 patients from open procedure group and no one with TAPP group developed seroma which were managed conservatively and resolved at 6 weeks and 8 weeks. One recurrence in TAPP group patient at the 1 week follow.Conclusions: Open preperitoneal repair is hence a technique as effective as laparoscopic hernia repair with a minimal learning curve, ability to be performed under regional anaesthesia and cost effective. It can hence be used to carry out inguinal hernia repairs effectively in rural areas.

Background: Inguinal mesh hernioplasty is one of the common procedures performed all over the world. It can be done either through open or laparoscopic techniques. The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of Lichtenstein tension free hernioplasty versus laparoscopic transabdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) mesh repair considering, duration of the surgery, hospital stay, and duration to resume normal activity, degree of postoperative pain, wound infection, recurrence and complications.Methods: Adult patients presented to the general surgical OPD, with the diagnosis of inguinal hernia underwent either Lichtenstein repair or laparoscopic repair by TAPP.Results: Patients in Group A (open-repair) had significantly greater level of local pain during rest and during routine activities than those within Group B (laparoscopic group) during the postoperative period assessed on the visual-analogue scale. Mean operative time for open hernia repair was 43.7 minutes and for laparoscopic hernia repair was 59.03 minutes and the difference were statistically significant (p=0.0001). The mean duration of hospital stay for open hernia repair was 2.16 days and that for laparoscopic hernia repair was 1.08 days with a (p=0.00001) which was statistically significant. The time to resume routine activities was much shorter among Group B patients than patients in Group A. Only one recurrence (3.3%) was seen in Group B after 6 months follow up.Conclusions: It is concluded that laparoscopic TAPP repair of inguinal hernia in adults is safe and preferred operation as compared to open inguinal hernia repair.

AIM: Based on the accumulated clinical material, this study aims to show the possibilities of diagnosing and treating direct inguinal hernias in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: During the period from 2000 to 2020, 3221 children with inguinal hernias were treated in the surgical department of the Republican Childrens Clinical Hospital in Syktyvkar. Of the above group of children with inguinal hernias, seven patients (0.22%) had direct inguinal hernias. The above was confirmed by ultrasound examination. In laparoscopic imaging, a rectal hernia was defined as a recess of the peritoneum of a stellate or rounded shape in the projection of the medial umbilical fossa. Two patients underwent the Bassini herniation procedure. Two children underwent laparoscopic hernia repair with intracorporeal suture insertion. In three patients, hernia repair was performed using the PRMS method. RESULTS: Long-term results were followed up from six months to 15 years. Immediate and postoperative complications were noted. No recurrence of hernia was reported. CONCLUSIONS: When establishing direct inguinal hernia diagnosis in children is clinically determined in the form of a rounded, soft-elastic formation localized medially and above the Pupart ligament next to the projection of the external (superficial) inguinal ring of the inguinal canal. It is easily set into the abdominal cavity with rumbling and confirmed by ultrasound examination results. The most preferred treatment method for direct inguinal hernia in children, in our opinion, is hernia repair using the percutaneous internal ring suturing (PIRS) method.

Abstract Purpose Groin hernia repair is the most frequently performed general surgical operation in the UK. Complications from laparoscopic and open repair are well recognised; however, potential differences are yet to be considered in relation to litigation. Methods Administrative data were obtained and analysed from the NHS Litigation Authority for inguinal hernia-related claims from 1995 to 2016. Claims identified as using an open or laparoscopic approach were compared. Results 880 claims were made, 760 had been settled. 88 laparoscopic and 241 open procedures were identified; 65% laparoscopic and 63% open hernia claims were found to be in favour of the claimant. Payouts totalled to 4.1GBP/4.8EUR/5.3USD million and 9.4GBP/11.0EUR/12.1USD million for laparoscopic (mean 82,824GBP/96,579EUR/106,453USD) and open (mean 66,796GBP/77,892EUR/85,852USD) approaches, respectively. The most common reasons for claim initiation were visceral/vascular injury (54%) in the laparoscopic group, and testicular complications or chronic pain (35%) in the open group. Additional procedures were necessary for 48% and 44% of laparoscopic and open claims, respectively. The highest average payouts were associated with visceral injury, (laparoscopic 116,482GBP/135,820EUR/149,715USD; open 199,103GBP/232,246EUR/255,905USD) and vascular injury (laparoscopic 88,624GBP/103,369EUR/113,892USD; open 64,460GBP/75,163EUR/82,870USD). Additional procedures resulted in an average payout of 93,352GBP/108,917EUR/120,008USD (laparoscopic) and 60,408GBP/70,506EUR/77,657USD (open). The most common additional procedures were corrective visceral/vascular repairs, orchidectomy and recurrent hernia repair. Conclusions The rate of litigation for clinical negligence in inguinal hernia surgery in the UK is increasing. Whilst there has been a recent increase in laparoscopic hernia repair claims, the volume and burden of claims related to open procedures remain greater.

Purpose of the study. Conduct a retrospective comparative analysis of the results of laparoscopic and traditional methods of inguinal hernia repair, patients treated at the surgical departments at “A.N. Syzganov National Scientific Center of Surgery”, Almaty, Kazakhstan. Materials and methods. In the period from January 2017 to December 2020 137 patients were operated at the “A.N. Syzganov National Scientific Center of Surgery” in a planned manner for inguinal hernia and all patients were divided into 2 main groups: operated by traditional methods and laparoscopic method. Results.The data of the analysis suggests that the laparoscopic method of hernioplasty has an advantage over the traditional methods. Conclusion. Based on a comparative analysis of the indicators of patients in both groups, it can be concluded that the duration of the operation for laparoscopic hernia repair is 92.3 minutes, significantly more than with traditional methods, which is 79.4 minutes. Despite this, the duration of analgesic therapy in the postoperative period with laparoscopic hernia repair is 2.4 days, and the duration of hospital stay after surgery is 3 days, much less than with traditional methods, in which the duration of analgesic therapy in the postoperative period is 3, 3 days, and the duration of hospital stay after surgery is 4.6 days. This analysis suggests that laparoscopic hernioplasty has an advantage over traditional methods.

AbstractPediatric inguinal hernia is one of the most common surgical conditions with open herniotomy being the gold standard of treatment. With the advances of laparoscopic surgery, it has emerged as an alternative to open repair with reported good results. However, laparoscopic hernia repair is not yet a routine procedure in many centers, and debate of laparoscopic versus open repair still exists. After 20 years of development of laparoscopic hernia repair, different techniques have been described with no consensus on the standard technique right now. This article reviews the latest updates of laparoscopic repair from the current evidence in the literature. Laparoscopic management of hernia in premature/small infants and hernia incarceration are also discussed here.

Inguinal hernia repair can be performed via either an open or laparoscopic technique. Use of a mesh to repair the abdominal wall defect is now common practice, leading to a reduction in hernia recurrence but also associated with a number of complications. We report a rare case of a 49-year old man who presented 3 years after laparoscopic hernia repair with right-sided abdominal pain and loose stools. Colonoscopy and computed tomography revealed a mesh and fixation devices within the lumen of the caecum and ascending colon. The mesh was successfully excised with primary closure of the bowel defect. This case highlights the importance of recognising mesh migration as a complication of hernia repair, a phenomenon which can lead to serious morbidity. We suggest that patients should be informed of this risk during the consent process, while further research is needed to investigate how this occurrence can be prevented.
