Abstract:
Inguinal hernia is a common general surgical non-oncological condition,with more than 20 million inguinal hernia surgeries performed annually worldwide.Surgery is the only treatment for inguinal hernias in adults due to the lack of spontaneous healing and ineffective pharmacological treatment,as well as the risk of life-threatening intestinal necrosis due to herniorrhaphy.The incidence of inguinal hernia is on the rise,and there may be an association between its pathogenesis and the mechanism of sarcopenia,as well as the adverse effects of sarcopenia on various postoperative conditions.This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the recognition,diagnosis,treatment,pathogenesis,early postoperative clinical recovery and recurrence of sarcopenia in patients with inguinal hernia.
