Purpose – to analyze condition of patients after surgical treatment of inguinal hernias by laparoscopic and open methods. Materials and methods. A retrospective review of medical histories and outpatient charts of all patients who underwent inguinal hernia surgery at the Kyiv City Clinical Hospital No. 1 from January 2018 to July 2020 was conducted. Results. During the above period of time in our hospital open hernioplasty was performed in 86 patients, laparoscopic hernioplasty – 138 patients. With open hernioplasty, the average duration of surgical treatment was 40±12 minutes. The laparoscopic technique was 35±12 minutes. The length of hospital stay was significantly longer in the group of patients with the open method (48±12 hours) than in the group of laparoscopic plastic surgery (12±3 hours). From the group of patients who underwent open hernioplasty, 62 patients complained of long-term pain syndrome, from the group of laparoscopy – 12 patients. The cosmetic appearance was dissatisfied with 34 patients in the open access group and only 2 patients in the laparoscopic plastic group. Postoperative complications were observed in 34 patients who underwent surgical treatment through open access, and in 15 patients – by laparoscopy. Conclusions. The laparoscopic approach of inguinal hernia surgery is superior to open access, as it reduces the length of hospital stay, postoperative recovery, improves the aesthetic effect of the operation, reduces the frequency of infection of incisions. According to the results of the study, this technique gives a better result in the early postoperative period, a lower percentage of chronic pain and a higher degree of patient satisfaction compared to open access with the same low recurrence rate. Therefore, in our opinion, laparoscopic access to hernioplasty is the optimal method of treatment and can be recommended as a method of choosing inguinal hernia surgery. Postoperative assessment of the quality of life of patients after treatment of inguinal hernia by laparoscopic and open methods. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local ethics committee of all participating institution. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. No conflict of interest was declared by the authors. Key words: inguinal hernia, laparoscopy, open access surgery, analysis of methods, operation.

Abdominal wall hernias are prevalent in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). Obturator hernias, first described by Arnaud de Ronsil in 1724, are an uncommon type of hernia where intra-abdominal contents protrude through the obturator foramen. The following case highlights a rare presentation of bilateral obturator hernias with right femoral and inguinal hernia in an 82-year-old woman post-PD. This patient presented with 5 months of bilateral thigh pain and swelling and was found to only have a right-sided obturator hernia on computer tomography (CT) scan. Intraoperatively, bilateral obturator hernias were found along with right inguinal and femoral hernias, which were all repaired laparoscopically with polypropylene mesh. Postoperatively, the patient developed a self-limiting port site hematoma and resumed PD 1 month post-surgery. Due to the high morbidity and mortality from obturator hernias, prompt diagnosis and treatment are imperative. Compared with open hernia repair, laparoscopic hernia repairs are associated with quicker return to usual activities and less persisting pain and numbness. This case portrays that laparoscopic approach to bilateral obturator hernias can be considered in patients post-PD.

Inguinal hernia repair using mesh is one of the most frequently performed operations in general surgery. The mesh can be placed using an open technique or by laparoscopic approach. Many studies have highlighted the merits and risks of laparoscopic approach for the repair of inguinal hernia, the final sentence still remains to be written as majority of trials are too small to show clear benefits of one technique over another. To compare laparoscopic mesh repair with open method in management of inguinal hernia. Asian Journal of Medical Science, Volume-5(3) 2014: 11-14 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ajms.v5i3.9301

AbstractLaparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair is a safe and effective technique. In this study we tested the hypothesis that self-gripping mesh used with the laparoscopic approach is comparable to polypropylene mesh in terms of perioperative complications, against a lower overall cost of the procedure.We carried out a prospective randomized trial comparing a group of 30 patients who underwent laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with self-gripping mesh versus a group of 30 patients who received polypropylene mesh with fibrin glue fixation.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups with regard to intraoperative variables, early or late intraoperative complications, chronic pain or recurrence.Self-gripping mesh in transabdominal hernia repair was found to be a valid alternative to polypropylene mesh in terms of complications, recurrence and postoperative pain. The cost analysis and comparability of outcomes support the preferential use of self-gripping mesh.
