Abstract:
Objective To inquire into the value of Liechtenstein Hernioplasty in the therapy of oblique or direct hernia.Method Liechtenstein was used in the therapy of 163 cases of oblique hernia (154 cases) and direct hernia (9 cases) from Feb.1998 to Jun.2001 and the clinical data was retrospectively studied.Most of them are of onset hernia except 8 cases of recurrent hernia.In 148 cases,the diameter of hernia ring is less than 2.5 cm and 30.1% of patients are elder than 65.The emergent operation was adopted in 12 cases.Results Off-bed exercises can be admitted at early stage of postoperation with slight pain and no local tension.Total recovery was obtained in 5-10 days after operation.After 6-36 months' follow-up,no mortality and less recurrence was detected.Conclusions There are so many advantages to treat oblique or direct hernia with Liechtenstein, such as minimized trauma, accelerated recovery,low recurrence rate and low cost. The indication of this operation involved all kinds of hernia (onset or recurrence of oblique or direct hernia,emergent operation of incarcerated oblique hernia, etc).
