Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of repairing and strengthening the posterior wall of the inguinal canal with laparoscopic hernioplasty using autologous anterior abdominal wall tissues.Methods From January 2001 to September 2007,173 adult patients with inguinal hernia(141 cases of indirect hernia,28 cases of direct hernia,3 cases of femoral hernia,and 1 case of obturator hernia)were treated by laparoscopic hernioplasty with autologous tissues obtained from the median,internal,and lateral umbilical folds,and the U-shape fold.Three trocars were used to perform the laparoscopy by one surgeon,who completed the intracavity suturing using two hands.Results All the 173 operations were completed without converting to open surgery.Among the 152 cases of unilateral hernia,the mean operation time was 25 min(10-40 min),while in the 21 cases of bilateral hernia,the mean operation time was 40 min(20-60 min).Postoperative complications included retroperitoneal hematoma(1 case),scrotal swelling(3),testicular hydrocele(1),subcutaneous hemorrhage at the inguinal area(2),and scrotitis(1).The patients were followed up for 1-84 months(mean 35 months),during which 3 patients had recurrence.Conclusions Laparoscopic hernioplasty with autologous tissues is feasible and safe for adult patients with inquinal hernia with advantages of short hospitalization,minimal surgical trauma,quick recovery,and low rate of recurrence.
