The repair of inguinal hernia is still one of the most prevalent surgical procedures done worldwide. Among all repair techniques, open Lichtenstein repair is the most globally conducted. In the past few decades, laparoscopic technique for inguinal hernia repair has increased technical demand.The current work is a short-term study to make a comparison between open Lichtenstein repair of inguinal hernia as well as laparoscopicThe present prospective randomized study recruited 100 male subjects from General Surgery Department of Al-Azhar University Hospitals and Ain Shams university hospitals suffering from oblique inguinal hernia (unilateral non recurrent hernia) with an age above 18 years and good overall health, who were randomized into two groups: Group A: 49 cases were subjected to laparoscopicThis study detected less post-operative pain day 0, day 1, day 7 and 1 month postoperatively. There was no significant difference at 6 months post-operatively.Finally, we concluded that TAPP repair for inguinal hernia (unilateral non recurrent hernia) safer with less early post-operative pain. Also, it has fewer complications, with a significantly longer operative time. |
