Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the method,indications, advantage and shortcoming of laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernia. MethodsFrom Jun. 1995 to Jun. 2000,50 patients with inguinal hernia were treated with laparoscopy. There were 34 indirect inguinal hernia, 9 direct inguinal hernia and 7 concealed hernia. The transabdominal preperitoneal laparoscopic mesh repair of hernia(TAPP) was performed in 34 patients. Closure of the internal orifice of hernia was performed in 7 patients. Totally extraperitoneal repair was performed in 9 patients. ResultsAll cases were operated successfully. The mean operation time was 59.3(15～180) mins. The average length of postoperative stay was 5.4(3～7)days. There were no death record and no conversion operation. There was one early failure owing to the use of too small a piece of mesh. There has been no long-term recurrence. ConclusionThe results indicate that mesh repair of hernias is a satisfactory technique with a low recurrence rate and a low major complication rate.
