Abstract:
Prostate cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in men.With the aging of the population and the progress of diagnostic technology,its incidence continues to rise.Radical prostatectomy is an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer.However,the incidence of inguinal hernia after surgery is high,which seriously affects patients' postoperative recovery and quality of life.This article provides a systematic review for the pathogenesis of inguinal hernia after prostate cancer surgery,including changes in anatomical structure,scar formation in the retroperitoneal space,no closure of sheath process,and increased intra-abdominal pressure after surgery.It also summarizes the relevant influencing factors,such as surgical methods,patients' own conditions,and postoperative recovery status.On this basis,surgical prevention and treatment strategies are explored,such as intraoperative preventive repair,re-fined surgical procedures,and postoperative targeted treatment.At the same time,future research directions are proposed,focusing on the in-depth exploration of molecular biological mechanisms,research and development of new materials,and application of artificial intelligence technology,aiming to reduce the incidence of inguinal hernia after prostate cancer surgery and improving patients' postop-erative quality of life.
