Methods: Twenty-eight patients with symptomatic chronic calculous cholecystitis and synchronous unilateral primary inguinal hernia were performed combined surgery between October 2001 and March 2005. Of them, 10 cases underwent laparoscopic totally extraperiloneal mesh hernia repair (TEP) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), 3 cases underwent laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal mesh hernia repair (TAPP) and LC, and 15 cases underwent LC and open tension free hernia repair. Results: All the procedures were performed successfully, 2 patients occurred urinary retention in LC + open group and 1 patient occurred scrotum seroma in LC + TEP procedures. During the 6 to 24 months' follow-up, no hernia recurrences occurred in all patients. There were 6 patients (40%) in LC + open group had discomfort pain in the inguinal region and lasted 1 to 3 months. The operating time was longer in the totally laparoscopic group (TEP + LC and TAPP + LC) (104±31 min) than in the LC+open group (80±28 min) (P<0. 05). The intensity of postoperative pain at rest was greater in the LC + open group at 24 h (P<0. 05) and 48 h (P<0. 05). No differences between the 2 groups were found in the mean operating costs and oral intake of the postoperative period. But the time resume to walking (2. 9 vs 1. 8 d) (P<0. 01) and the mean hospital stay (8. 2 vs 4. 6 d) (P<0. 001) was longer in the LC + open group than in the totally laparoscopic group. Conclusion: In the same operating costs, the totally laparoscopic precedure has more advantages of low postoperative pain, quicker resume to walking and less hospital stay than open tension-free hernia repair in hernioplasty and simultaneous LC. Thus, the totally laparoscopic approach is considered to be advantage of the hernioplasty and simultaneous LC.展开更多

Methods: A total of 80 patients with hernias were selected and randomly into a control group (traditional hernia repair) and an observation group (tension-free hernia repair), of 40 cases each. The perioperative indicators, pain, physiological stress indicators, complications, and recurrence rates between the two groups were compared. Results: The perioperative indexes of the observation group were better than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The postoperative pain score, postoperative physiological stress index level, incidence of complications, and recurrence rate of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: In the surgical treatment of hernia, tension-free hernia repair was less traumatic and had a better effect than traditional hernia repair.展开更多

Omega-3 coating mesh (C-Qur) is a prosthesis that can be used in the abdominal cavity, and the coating prevents adhesion of the mesh to the viscera. We planned a prospective observational study of laparoscopic hernioplasty using C-Qur. Methods: C-Qur was used in laparoscopic hernioplasty over the course of 1 year. We considered laparoscopic approaches as our primary treatment method for abdominal wall hernias. Although only a single incision was made for the majority of the laparoscopic hernioplasties, additional incisions were made when severe adhesions were encountered. For incisional or ventral hernias, a lateral lower incision was made. For inguinal hernias, an umbilical incision was made. Sex, age, diagnosis, number of incisions, additional incisions, morbidity, and follow-up period were evaluated. Results: Twenty-four patients who underwent surgery between May 2010 and April 2011 were included in this study. The median follow-up period was 14 months. The most common early complications included wound pain and edema;however, there were no persistent complications.展开更多
