Laparscopic Hernioplasty in Recurrent Inguinal Hernia

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Recurrent Inguinal Hernia
Interventions
Procedure: Total extraperitoneal (TEP) hernioplasty using polyprolene mesh
Procedure: Transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) using polyprolene mesh
Registration Number
NCT06050538
Lead Sponsor
Mansoura University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to compare between laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) repair of inguinal hernia in recurrent inguinal hernia.

Detailed Description

The primary objective in this study was to compare postoperative pain between the TAPP group and the TEP group. The secondary objective was to compare operative time, intraoperative complications (bleeding, bowel injury, vascular injury), postoperative complications (hematoma, seroma, wound infection), length of hospital stay and recurrence rate with possible risk factors which include gender, age, BMI ,cord lipomas and location of the hernia.
