Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of transabdominal preperitoneal prosthetic(TAPP) repair combined with intraperitoneal onlay mesh(IPOM) on laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernia.Methods From January to December 2006,laparoscopic hernioplasty was performed on 30 adult patients with inguinal hernia.The hernia area was divided into two parts by the subperitoneal vessel across the area.The medial part was repaired by TAPP using polypropylene patch,and the lateral part was repaired by IPOM with Proceed patch.During to operation,an incision was made on the peritoneum along the subperitoneal vessel,and then the peritoneum was separated medially to expose an operative area(7.5 cm?6.5 cm),which was an avascular area with loose connective tissues and few vital nerves.Results All the operations were accomplished under epidural anesthesia.The operative time was 30-40 min(mean 35 min) for unilateral hernia,and 50-60 min(mean 55 min) for bilateral ones.The amount of blood loss during the operation was 1-5 ml.The patients could walk on the second day after the operation.They were discharged from the hospital 3-4 days after the operation,and were back to work in 2 weeks.During a 2-12-month follow-up(mean,9 months),no adhesive intestinal obstruction and local or systemic complications was observed.Conclusions The combined technique of IPOM and TAPP is a minimal invasive method with confirmed efficacy.By using this easily mastered method,the operative time is reduced,and the patients can recover quickly.
