Objective: We have presented our technique in which central zone of mesh is fixed only after closure of hernial defect. Patients and Methods: This study included 27 males patients (14 indirect inguinal hernias, 9 direct inguinal hernias, 4 both direct and indirect inguinal hernias on the same side). These cases are undergoing tension-free mesh repair after closure of hernial defect, and the mesh is fixed only at its central zone using Gulbran 2, between April 2011 and March 2013. The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 30 months. The intra and postoperative complications were recorded. Results: Mean hospital stay was 1 day. The age of this group of patients ranged from 23 to 63 years (mean, 47 years). The operative time ranged from 30 to 100 minutes (mean, 45 minutes). The intraoperative complications were in form of mild bleeding in 7 patients (25.9%) during hernial sac dissection. Postoperative complications were mild inguinal pain in 4 patients (14.8%) for three weeks. Mild hydrocele in 3 patients (11%) was recorded. No recurrence or bulging at hernia site was noticed during the period of follow-up. Conclusion: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with central mesh fixation after closure of hernial defect is effective, easy and free of complications.展开更多

This study offers new procedure to avoid this complication during LC. The gall bladder was divided into two parts above the Hartmann pouch and all contents were aspirated. Then, the distal part was dissected for short distance. The proximal part was dissected dome down until reaching to cystic duct which was tied or clipped and cut. J-vac drain was put in peritoneal cavity. Between September 2012 and October 2013, overall 77 patients (53 females and 24 males) with mean age of 49 years (between 23 and 67 years) underwent bipartite laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The mean operative time was 60 minutes (between 40 and 90 minutes). The dissection of both parts of gall bladder was safe and easy as close as possible from its wall. No biliary tract injuries were recorded during or after procedure and also at follow-up period (20 months). Bipartite laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe, easy to do, and can avoid all complications especially bile duct injuries in difficult cases.展开更多
