Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of single-port laparoscopic high ligation of processus vaginalis by using the Veress needle.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on data of 51 cases of single-port laparoscopic high ligation of processus vaginalis with the Veress needle from January 2021 to March 2023.A Veress needle was used instead of hernia needle to perform high ligation of processus vaginalis.Results All the operations were successful without additional auxiliary ports or conversion to open surgery.The time of unilateral operation in 46 cases was 6-15 min(mean,8.9±1.9 min).The bilateral operation time in 5 cases was 13-19 min(mean,15.4±2.3 min).After 6 months of follow-up after surgery,there was no recurrence in all children,and no complications such as suture knot reaction,scrotal edema,scrotal hematoma,iatrogenic cryptorchidism,and testicular atrophy occurred.Conclusions Single-port laparoscopic high ligation of processus vaginalis by using the Veress needle has the advantages of single-port surgery,single puncture,and simple performance.The therapeutic effect is definite and it is worthy to be popularized.
