About

evaluation of feasibility and efficacy of trans inguinal periperitoneal technique by using conventional mesh inguinal hernia repair in general surgery department in Assiut university hospitals

Full description

Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide with approximately 20 million cases every year . The open Lichtenstein tension-free hernioplasty is most commonly performed and recognized for its low recurrence rate and short learning curve, but associated with an undesirably high level of postoperative chronic groin pain, up to 10-35% . Therefore, chronic groin pain is a common concern after inguinal hernia surgery. Treatment of chronic groin pain can be challenging and may require several interventions including, local anaesthesia , corticosteroids or additional surgery . Several studies showed that chronic groin pain might be dependent on the surgical technique, including identification and handling of inguinal nerves ,Preperitoneal techniques like the transinguinal preperitoneal patch (TIPP )have been developed to minimize these risks. The TIPP technique which introduced by prissier involves a standard anterior inguinal approach, with high dissection and preperitoneal reduction use of a PolySoft mesh have been proved to cause less chronic pain than the Lichtenstein technique. The PolySoft mesh is a lightweight polypropylene mesh, tailored in asymmetric oval shape that contains a recoil ring. Recent studies deficient in evaluation feasibility and efficacy of trans inguinal periperitoneal technique by using conventional mesh in inguinal hernia repair . So the aim of our study to evaluate the use of conventional mesh in transinguinal preperitoneal technique in inguinal hernioplasty .
