Abstract:
Objective To study a new operative procedure for hydrocele in children under mini-lapascope.Methods 103 children with hydrocele aged from 1 to 9 years old were performed by suture around internal rings under mini-laparoscope from November 2000 to March 2002. Results The operative time was (5～8) minutes and hospital stay (4～5) days. The incision didn't need suture and there was no obvious scar after operation. All cases were followed up at 1st month, 6th month and 1st year postoperatively. All cases recovered except for 2 cases recurred at 1st month postoperatively. Conclusions Suture around internal rings under mini-laparoscope is a minimally invasive and simple method for the treatment of hydrocele in children. It can find and deal with hidden patent internal rings.
