Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the outcomes of umbilical hernia repairing in adults.Methods Forty-nine cases of umbilical hernia admitted between 2003 and 2008 were analyzed retrospectively.Opera-tive techniques included traditional repair (n = 14),Kugel patch (n = 21) and mesh plug-patch (n = 14).Results The operative time of traditional repair was shorter than those for patients who underwent Kugel patch hernioplasty or mesh plug-patch hemiorrhaphy.But the pain was significantly higher.With a follow-up of 1 -6 years,whereas no recurrence was documented for the tension-free hemiorraphy,but a case recurred for traditional repair.Conclusion Tension-free hemiorraphy is a safe,efficacious and lower complications technique for the repair of umbilical hernia.
