Abstract:
Objective:To study the effect of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and mesh plug repair on the sexual function of patients with indirect inguinal hernia.Methods:One hundred and four patients with indirect inguinal hernia who were treated in the No.922 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force from January 2018 to October 2019 were selected and divided into two groups according to the method of random number table: routine group and TAPP group, with 52 cases in each group. The routine group was treated with mesh plug repair, and the TAPP group was treated with TAPP. The international erectile function index-5 (IIEF-5) was used to evaluate the sexual function of the patients after operation for 6 months, the visual analog pain scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the pain after operation for 1 month, and the relevant indexes of the operation and the incidence of complications were compared.Results:The IIEF-5 scores at 6 months after operation in two groups was higher than that before operation, the testicular volume and the maximum blood flow velocity of testicular artery in two groups were lower than those before operation, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05); the IIEF-5 scores at 6 months after operation in the TAPP group was higher than that in the routine group [(23.86 ± 1.5) scores vs. (21.45 ± 3.85) scores], and the testicular volume and the maximum blood flow velocity of testicular artery were higher than those in the routine group [(9.65 ± 0.08) cm 3 vs. (9.39 ± 0.09) cm 3, (3.83 ± 1.05) cm/s vs. (2.88 ± 0.36) cm/s], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). One month after operation, the pain scores of two group were lower than that before operation, and the pain scores of TAPP group was lower than that of routine group [(1.65 ± 0.35) scores vs. (2.78 ± 0.39) scores], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The operation time of TAPP group was higher than that of routine group [(44.35 ± 6.26) min vs. (41.80 ± 5.95) min], the bleeding volume, the time of getting out of bed, the time of hospitalization of TAPP group were lower than those of routine group [(54.66 ± 8.98) ml vs. (73.25 ± 15.25) ml, [(12.75 ± 2.42) h vs. (23.55 ± 3.66) h], (3.25 ± 1.01) d vs. (7.85 ± 1.44) d], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The incidence of operation complications of TAPP group was lower than that of routine group [3.85%(2/52) vs. 21.15%(11/52)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=7.121, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with conventional hernia repair, laparoscopic hernia repair can improve the sexual function, relieve the pain, improve the therapeutic effect and reduce the complications.
