Abstract

Objective: Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common general surgical procedure, and laparoscopic approach gained popularity over the open approach. This study aimed to compare the clinical effects of TEP inguinal hernioplasty with or without mesh fixation. The primary outcome was acute post-operative pain. Material and Methods: A retrospective comparative study on a prospectively collected data was conducted in a large DGH in England between January 2017 and December 2019 on 47 patients. The patients were divided into two groups. In group A, mesh fixation was performed with absorbable tackers and in group B no fixation was performed. Patients were followed up to 18 months postoperatively. Data was collected on post-operative pain, cost, recurrences and time taken to return to normal activities. Patients with lower midline scar and complicated inguinal hernias were excluded. Results: Out of the 47 patients 53% (n= 25) were in group A and 47% (n= 22) in group B. All the patients in both groups were male. The mean postoperative pain score at 72h in group A was 7.12 (SD 1.13) and 4.91 (SD 1.23) in group B (p 0.05). Conclusion: Pain and time taken to return to normal work postoperatively were significantly less in the non-fixation group. The study recommends non-fixation over fixation as it is feasible, cost-effective, causes less post-operative pain and no differences in terms of recurrences.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Inguinal herni onarımı en yaygın cerrahi işlemlerden biri olmakla birlikte laparoskopik yaklaşım açık yaklaşıma göre daha büyük popülariteye sahiptir. Bu çalışma, sabitlemeli ve sabitlemesiz meş yerleştirilen TEP inguinal hernioplastinin klinik sonuçlarını araştırmaktı. Primer sonuç ise akut postopertif ağrı idi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Prospektif olarak toplanan verilerden retrospektif karşılaştırmalı bir çalışma Ocak 2017 ve Aralık 2019 tarihleri arasında İngiltere’de 47 hastada uygulandı. Hastalar iki gruba ayrıldı. Grup A’da absorbe olabilen zımbalarla meş sabitlemesi uygulanırken Grup B’de bu tür bir sabitleme uygulanmadı. Hastalar postoperatif 18. aya kadar takip edildi. Postoperatif ağrı, maliyet, nüks ve normal faaliyetlere dönüş açısından veriler kaydedildi. Alt orta hat skarı ve komplike inguinal hernisi olan hastalar çalışma dışında tutuldu. Bulgular: Kırk yedi hastanın %53’ü (n=25) Grup A’da %47’si ise (n= 22) Grup B’de idi. Her iki gruptaki tüm hastalar erkekti. Grup A’da 72. saatte postoperatif ağrı skoru 7.12 (SD 1.13), Grup B’de 4.91 (SD 1.23) idi (p 0,05). Sonuç: Postoperatif ağrı ve normal faaliyetlere dönüş sabitleme yapılmayan grupta anlamlı derecede daha düşüktü. Çalışmamızın sonuçları, uygulanabilir ve uygun maliyetli olduğundan ve daha az postoperatif ağrıya sebep olmasından ve nüks açısından herhangi bir fark göstermemesinden ötürü sabitlemesiz meş yerleştirme işlemini önermektedir.
