Filter by:Mesh repair of inguinal hernia is the most common operation performed on general surgical patients. Approximately 20 million groin hernioplasties are performed each year worldwide. Countless studies have been reported in the medical literature in attempts to improve the overall outcomes following hernia operations and, due to this fact, the procedure has evolved immensely, especially over the last few decades. Recurrence of inguinal hernia was initially a significant problem. Lichtenstein repair (LR), recurrence rate has consistently been reported as low as 1-4%[2], a drop from up to 10%. But increased incidence of chronic groin pain following LR. Transinguinal preperitoneal (TIPP) inguinal hernia repair with soft mesh has been reported as a safe anterior approach with a preperitoneal mesh position . Theoretically, TIPP repair may be associated with lesser chronic postoperative pain than Lichtenstein's technique due to the placement of mesh in the preperitoneal space to avoid direct regional nerves dissection and their exposure to bio-reactive synthetic mesh. The placement of mesh in this plane without using any suture for fixation and lack of mesh exposure to regional nerves was assumed to result in the reduced risk of developing chronic groin pain. So aim of our study to prove less hospital stay and complication and cost effectiveness for preperitoneal meshplasty
Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair techniques has been compared with the open techniques in several studies. However, no one studied about the different uses of the same type of mesh on the same surgical technique, and effects of this different use on testicular volume and blood flow. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects at 6 months of the divided and non divided mesh in laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal hernia repair technique on testicular volume and blood flow by use of Doppler Ultrasonography
The Trans REctussheath PrePeritoneal (TREPP) mesh repair was introduced in 2006 to decrease the risk of postoperative inguinal pain in hernia surgery. For the repair of a recurrent inguinal hernia after a primary TREPP an alternative open anterior route (Lichtenstein) may seem the most logical option, but coincides with an increased risk of chronic postoperative inguinal pain. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a second TREPP procedure to repair a recurrent inguinal hernia after an initial TREPP repair. The hypothesis was that the technique is possible and does not lead to an increased risk of postoperative pain.
the study is basically aimed at comparing two techniques of herniotomy by comparing there recurrence rates
The purpose of this study is to determine and compare the possible affects of two different inguinal hernia repair technique (TEP and Lichtenstein) on serum ASA levels.
There are difficulties in the progress of the study and cancel the plan. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the postoperative pain control using non - opioidal analgesics in children. The investigators will investigate the effect of single use and combination of caldorol(ibuprofen) compare to denogan(propacetamol) in children. Participants who receive the laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair between 6 months and 6 years old are divided 3 groups(caldolor, denogan, combination). Each groups are received a medication by protocol during surgery. After operation patient's pain score and use of additional analgesics are recorded in postanesthesia care unit and general ward.
In the literature, there are several studies that compare Laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) with Lichtenstein hernia (LH) repair. There are no studies that compare sexual functions on men's health and quality of life. Our aim was to study the sexual functions of men, who underwent TEP or LH repair according to Health Survey Scoring Demonstration (SF36) and The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF).
Post operative urinary retention ( POUR) is caused by sympathetic activation of the internal urethral sphincter after surgery. The smooth muscles of the around the internal urethral sphincter have been demonstrated to be rich in alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Our research idea is novel because there has been no prior prospective study conducted using alpha-blockers to reduce post-operative urinary retention in patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair. The proposed research is important as existing studies that sought to understand POUR have merely established the risks factors involved. Despite so, the incidence of POUR remains high and no studies to date have investigated the use of specific interventions to reduce the risk of POUR. This is essential as patients who develop POUR have also been successfully shown to have significantly longer length of hospitalisation. Besides, the development of POUR can also cause significant pain/discomfort, increase risks of long-term urethral catheterisation and predispose patients to urinary tract infections
The purpose of this study is to determine if the surgical technique for creation of extraperitoneal space during laparoscopic TEP inguinal hernia repair (telescopic dissection or balloon dissection) has an impact on operative times, early postoperative pain scores, surgical complications and rate of hernia recurrence following laparoscopic TEP inguinal hernia repair.
A multicenter, single-dose study in children 12 to <17 years of age, 6 to <12 years of age, and 2 to <6 years of age who are scheduled for elective open inguinal hernia repair. Enrollment in this study will start with the oldest age group (12 to <17 years) and will continue in a stepwise fashion until appropriate doses are established for all 3 pediatric age groups (12 to <17 years, 6 to <12 years, 2 to <6 years).
