Abstract:
Objective To summarize the experience of laparoscopic purse-string transfixion of the internal ring combined with intraperitoneal onlay mesh(IPOM) laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in the treatment of adult indirect inguinal hernia.Methods The modified IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy(laparoscopic purse-string transfixion of the internal ring combined with IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy) was performed in 15 adult patients with indirect inguinal hernia in this hospital from September 2004 to February 2005.Results The time of operation was 30~60 min(mean,35 min). The patients were discharged from hospital 2~3 days after operation.Two patients complained of tractive discomfort after operation and were cured with postoperative physical therapy for 2 weeks.Follow-up observations in 15 patients for 2~6 months(mean,4.8 months) revealed no recurrence.Conclusions The modified IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy is a safe and feasible option for adult indirect inguinal hernia,with advantages of simplicity of performance, few complications,mild postoperative pain,quick recovery,low recurrence,and good cosmetic results.
