Filter by:Laparoscopic contralateral patent processus vaginalis (CPPV) repair in infancy and childhood is still debatable, due to the high CPPV rate but low contralateral metachronous hernia (MCIH) rate. In order to found risk factors for MH, we conducted this prospective study. This is an multi-center investigator-initiated observational prospective trial. After informed all the benefits and risks of repair CPPV simultaneously, those patients with unilateral inguinal hernia whose parents preferred not to repair CPPV simultaneously will be assigned in the study. All information about demographic data, hernia side, CPPV type and CPPV diameter will be recorded. The subjects will be followed up until MCIH developing or to 24 months postoperatively. Patients will be analyzed to identify the risk factors for MH.
Although mesh fixation has been associated to an increased incidence of nerve injury and involves increased operative costs, many surgeons feel that fixation is necessary to reduce the risk of hernia recurrence. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of laparoscopic herniorrhaphies performed with and without mesh fixation at our institution.
This study analyse the need for neuromuscular blockade in consecutive routine laparoscopic procedures without standard use of neuromuscular blockade in an ambulatory laparoscopic surgery setting and analyse specific reasons for using neuromuscular blockade in individual patients. Furthermore, the study report the analgesic use in postoperative care unit and the discharge rate.
