ObjectiveTo investigate the surgical skills and clinical effects of the laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair in treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia with plug prefix mesh. MethodsThe clinical data such as operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications of 87 patients with recurrent inguinal hernia reoperated in laparoscopic TAPP after inguinal hernioplasty with plug prefix mesh (recurrent hernia group), in the Department of Gastroenterology and Hernia surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2011 to December 2013, were retrospectively analyzed, which were compared with the 834 incipient inguinal hernia patients operated first by TAPP (incipient hernia group) at the same time. ResultsThe operations were completed successfully in all of the 921 patients without conversion to open surgery. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the recurrent hernia group were significantly more than those in the incipient hernia group (P=0.000, P=0.000), the postoperative hospital stay had no signifcant difference between two groups (P=0.057). No recurrences were observed in the recurrent hernia group and incipient hernia group for following-up of (31±4) months and (28±6) months, respectively. Compared with the incipient hernia group, the rates of postoperative pain on day 30 and seroma on day 1 and 3 were higher in the recurrent hernia group (P=0.001, P=0.040, P=0.003, respectively). There were no severe complications such as collateral damage, foreign body sensation, incision infection, intestinal obstruction and so on in the two groups. ConclusionsThe laparoscopic TAPP inguinal hernia repair is safe and effective for patients with recurrent inguinal hernia with plug prefix mesh. More skills are required to reduce the complications. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in reoperated patients with recurrent inguinal hernia are more than those in patients with incipient inguinal hernia. The rates of seroma on day 1 and 3 are also higher.
Objective To explore the method and effectiveness of laparoscopic bundled fastigiated mesh in repairing inguinal hernia. Methods Between January 2003 and December 2009, 1 215 patients (1 363 sides) with inguinal hernia were treated. There were 1 132 males (1 268 sides) and 83 females (95 sides), aged from 18 to 89 years (median, 58 years). The cases included 1 187 cases (1 329 sides) of primary hernia and 28 cases (34 sides) of recurrent hernia. There were indirect inguinal hernia in 728 cases (786 sides), direct inguinal hernia in 416 cases (499 sides), femoral hernia in 43 cases (45 sides), and unusual hernia in 28 cases (33 sides). According to the hernia classification criteria, there were 31 cases (38 sides) in type I, 683 cases (754 sides) of type II, 403 cases (452 sides) of type III, and 98 cases (119 sides) of type IV. The disease duration was 1 to 9 days with an average of 3.8 days. To repair the hernia, the bundled fastigiated mesh was patched through the internal inguinal ring and fixed on the internal inguinal fascia by three-point fixation. The mesh would be wrapped in the peritoneum by purse-string suture. Results The surgeries were performd successfully. The operative time ranged from 18-32 minutes (mean, 22 minutes). Postoperative tractional pain in the inguinal region occurred in 19 cases (21 sides), acute uroschesis in 8 cases, and far-end hernial sac effusion in 2 cases (2 sides); all were cured after symptomatic treatment. All incisions healed by first intention, and no complications of fever, infection, or hematoma occurred. A total of 1 095 cases (1 182 sides) were followed up 1 to 7 years (median, 3 years and 9 months). Five patients died of medical illnesses at 1-3 years after operation. Three cases recurred and then were cured by a second surgery. No intestinal adhesion or obstruction occurred. Conclusion The bundled fastigiated mesh in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair has the advantages of minimal invasiveness, easy-to-operate, less complications, and lower recurrence rate.

Methods Self-made questionnaires were used to investigate the defecation change among patients having undergone inguinal hernia mesh-repairs from May to June 2010, and the correlated factors for change of defecation were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results Reduction of activity and food, changes of food ingredients, and worries about recurrence were risk factors for change of defecation. Conclusion In order to facilitate the recovery of the patients, nurses should promote patients’ knowledge on the surgery, guide them to eat as usual and do more exercises, and eliminate their anxiety on recurrence of the disease.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of various covering tissues for improving the cure rate of spontaneous rupture of esophagus. METHODS From 1970 to 1994, 13 cases with spontaneous rupture of esophagus were performed primary repair, among them, 10 cases were covered by pedicled greater omentum after impair, and the other 3 cases were covered by pedicled pleural flap. RESULTS: Satisfactory result and complete recovery were obtained in all 10 cases by using pedicled greater omentum. Two cases among 3 cases using pedicled pleural flap suffered re-rupture of esophagus at 5 days and 8 days after operation, and died because of whole body exhaustion. CONCLUSION Pedicled greater omentum is a good covering tissue for repair of spontaneous rupture of esophagus.
Objective To review the research progress of meniscus repair in recent years, in order to provide help for the clinical decision-making of meniscus injury treatment. Methods The domestic and foreign literature related to meniscal repair in recent years was extensively reviewed to summarize the reasons for the prevalence of meniscal repair, surgical indications, various repair methods and long-term effectiveness, the need to deal with mechanical structural abnormalities, biological enhancement repair technology, rehabilitation treatment, and so on. Results In order to delay the occurrence of osteoarthritis, the best treatment of meniscus has undergone an important change from partial meniscectomy to meniscal repair, and the indications for meniscal repair have been expanding. The mid- and long-term effectiveness of different meniscal repair methods are ideal. During meniscus repair, the abnormality of lower limb force line and meniscus protrusion should be corrected at the same time. There are controversies about the biological enhancement technology to promote meniscus healing and rehabilitation programs, which need further study. ConclusionMeniscal repair can restore the normal mechanical conduction of lower limbs and reduce the incidence of traumatic osteoarthritis, but the poor blood supply and healing ability of meniscal tissue bring difficulties to meniscal repair. Further development of new biological enhanced repair technology and individualized rehabilitation program and verification of its effectiveness will be an important research direction.
ObjectiveTo investigate the application of tension-free herniarepair under local anesthesia in senile inguinal hernia. MethodsClinical data of 163 cases of senile inguinal hernias with herniorrhaphy under local anesthesia in our department from October 2011 to October 2014 were analyzed retrospectively, including epidural anesthesia 90 patients and local anesthesia 73 patients. ResultsAll patients were successfully completed surgery. Hospital charges in local anesthesia were much cheaper than that in epidural anesthesia group (P=0.002). Hospital days in local anesthesia were much shorter than that in epidural anesthesia group (P=0.035). Lung complication in local anesthesia were much less than that in epidural anesthesia group (P=0.015). Other indicators were no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). ConclusionTension-free herniorrhaphy under local anesthesia in elderly patients is safe, reliable, less invasive method with low costs, slight postoperative pain, and worthy of promotion.
