Journal Title: Harsukh Educational Charitable Society International Journal of Community Health and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Inguinal hernias account for 75% of abdominal wall hernias, with a lifetime risk of 27% in men and 3% in women. Repair of inguinal hernia is one of the most common operations in general surgery. Hence; we planned the present study to retrospectively analyze inguinal hernia repair by various methods. Materials & methods: The present study included retrospective evaluation of cases of inguinal hernia that underwent repair by different methods. Data records of a total of 150 patients were included in the present study. Complete demographic, clinical and surgical details of all the cases were obtained. All the cases were broadly divided into three study groups with 50 patients in each group depending upon the type of repair method: Lichtenstein’s repair (LR), Preperitoneal meshplasty (PM), and Laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal repair (LTEP). Detailed record of the preoperative investigations and postoperative complications was obtained in all the patients. Results: Early complications observed in the present study were hematoma formation, wound infection. Postoperative pain and mesh infection. Late complications observed in the present study were chronic pain, recurrence and sinus formation. Non- significant results were obtained while comparing the occurrence of postoperative infections in between the three study groups. Conclusion: All the three surgical procedures are equally effective in terms of postoperative complications in patients with inguinal hernia.
