Purpose
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair in patients who have undergone robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).Methods
From July 2014 to December 2016, TAPP inguinal hernia repair was conducted in 40 consecutive patients who had previously undergone RALP. Their data were retrospectively analyzed as an uncontrolled case series.Results
The mean operation time in patients who had previously undergone RALP was 99.5 ± 38.0 min. The intraoperative blood loss volume was small, and the duration of hospitalization was 2.0 ± 0.5 days. No intraoperative complications or major postoperative complications occurred. During the average 11.2-month follow-up period, no patients who had previously undergone prostatectomy developed recurrence.Conclusions
Laparoscopic TAPP inguinal hernia repair after RALP was safe and effective. TAPP inguinal hernia repair may be a valuable alternative to open hernioplasty.2.

Background
Fixation of mesh is typically performed to minimize risk of recurrence in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Mesh fixation with staples has been implicated as a cause of chronic inguinal pain. Our study aim is to compare mesh fixation using a fibrin sealant versus staple fixation in laparoscopic inguinal hernia and compare outcomes for hernia recurrence and chronic inguinal pain.Methods and procedures
PubMed was searched through December 2010 by use of specific search terms. Inclusion criteria were laparoscopic total extraperitoneal repair inguinal hernia repair, and comparison of both mesh fibrin glue fixation and mesh staple fixation. Primary outcomes were inguinal hernia recurrence and chronic inguinal pain. Secondary outcomes were operative time, seroma formation, hospital stay, and time to return to normal activity. Pooled odds ratios (OR) were calculated assuming random-effects models.Results
Four studies were included in the review. A total of 662 repairs were included, of which 394 were mesh fixed by staples or tacks, versus 268 with mesh fixed by fibrin glue. There was no difference in inguinal hernia recurrence with fixation of mesh by staples/tacks versus fibrin glue [OR 2.13; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.60–7.63]. Chronic inguinal pain (at 3 months) incidence was significantly higher with staple/tack fixation (OR 3.25; 95% CI 1.62–6.49). There was no significant difference in operative time, seroma formation, hospital stay, or time to return to normal activities.Conclusions
The meta-analysis does not show an advantage of staple fixation of mesh over fibrin glue fixation in laparoscopic total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair. Because fibrin glue mesh fixation with laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair achieves similar hernia recurrence rates compared with staple/tack fixation, but decreased incidence of chronic inguinal pain, it may be the preferred technique.3.
Purpose
Total extraperitoneal preperitoneal (TEP) repair is widely used for inguinal, femoral, or obturator hernia treatment. However, mesh repair is not often used for strangulated hernia treatment if intestinal resection is required because of the risk of postoperative mesh infection. Complete mesh repair is required for hernia treatment to prevent postoperative recurrence, particularly in patients with femoral or obturator hernia.Cases
We treated four patients with inguinocrural and obturator hernias (a 72-year-old male with a right indirect inguinal hernia; an 83-year-old female with a right obturator hernia; and 86- and 82-year-old females with femoral hernias) via a two-stage laparoscopic surgery. All patients were diagnosed with intestinal obstruction due to strangulated hernia. First, the incarcerated small intestine was released and then laparoscopically resected. Further, 8–24 days after the first surgery, bilateral TEP repairs were performed in all patients; the postoperative course was uneventful in all patients, and they were discharged 5–10 days after TEP repair. At present, no hernia recurrence has been reported in any patient.Conclusion
The two-stage laparoscopic treatment is safe for treatment of strangulated inguinal, femoral, and obturator hernias, and complete mesh repair via the TEP method can be performed in elderly patients to minimize the occurrence of mesh infection.4.
Purpose
Establishing the existence of inguinal neuritis, and defining patterns of nerve involvement in primary inguinal hernia repair.Methods
A retrospective chart review of 100 consecutive primary inguinal hernia repairs by Lichtenstein technique with frequent ilioinguinal nerve removal was performed. Nerves suspected of containing neuritis had been sent for histological examination. Objective clinical parameters and nerve pathology reports were reviewed. An independent biostatistician reviewed the data.Results
There were 34 cases of inguinal neuritis in these primary inguinal hernia repairs. The nerve most affected in primary repairs was the ilioinguinal nerve, accounting for 88% of the neuritis cases. Inguinal neuritis occurred mainly at the external oblique neuroperforatum—where the nerve pierces the external oblique fascia, accounting for 83% in primary repair. The only clinical parameter with statistical significance was hernia laterality (P = 0.04), 46% of the patients who had a hernia on the left also had inguinal neuritis.Conclusion
The overall incidence of inguinal neuritis was 34% in primary inguinal hernia repairs. The ilioinguinal nerve was most commonly affected in these primary inguinal hernia repairs, and inguinal neuritis was most likely to occur at the external oblique neuroperforatum.5.
Purpose
This study compared the long-term recurrence rates of laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) and open inguinal hernia repair in patients from a randomised trial completed in 1994. Laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery, especially TEP repair, has gained widespread acceptance in recent years. There is still paucity of data on long-term follow-up comparing recurrence rates for open and laparoscopic techniques. This is the first study providing direct long-term comparative data about these techniques.Methods
A randomised controlled trial was conducted between 1992 and 1994 on patients undergoing a laparoscopic TEP or an open inguinal hernia (Shouldice) repair at our institution. Of the original 104 participants, contemporary follow-up data could be obtained for 98 patients with regards to long-term recurrence. These data were collected with the help of questionnaires, telephone calls and retrieval of case records. Medical records were reviewed for all patients. Data were analysed using a Cox proportional hazards model.Results
There were 7/72 (9.7%) recurrences in the open group and 9/35 (25.7%) recurrences in the laparoscopic group. This difference in recurrence rates was statistically significant (HR = 2.94; 95% CI 1.05–8.25; p = 0.041.)Conclusion
Laparoscopic TEP inguinal hernia repair performed in 1992–1994 had a higher recurrence rate than open Shouldice inguinal hernia repair during the same period. The original study was undertaken in the inceptive days of laparoscopic surgery and results need to be interpreted considering the technology and expertise available at that time.6.
Purpose
To investigate which type of hernia that has the highest risk of a recurrence after a primary Lichtenstein repair.Methods
Male patients operated on with a Lichtenstein repair for a primary direct or indirect inguinal hernia and with a TEP for a later recurrence, with both operations recorded in the Swedish Hernia Register (SHR), were included in the study. The study period was 1994–2014.Results
Under the study period, 130,037 male patients with a primary indirect or direct inguinal hernia were operated on with a Lichtenstein repair. A second operation in the SHR was registered in 2236 of these patients (reoperation rate 1.7 %). TEP was the chosen operation in 737 in this latter cohort. The most likely location for a recurrence was the same as the primary location. If the recurrences change location from the primary place, we recognized that direct hernias had a RR of 1.51 to having a recurrent indirect hernia compared to having a direct recurrence after an indirect primary hernia repair.Conclusions
Recurrent hernias after Lichtenstein are more common on the same location as the primary one, compared to changing the location.7.

Background
A novel antireflux procedure combining laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and Hill repair components was tested in 50 patients with paraesophageal hernia (PEH) and/or Barrett’s esophagus (BE) because these two groups have been found to have a high rate of recurrence with conventional repairs.Methods
Patients with symptomatic PEH and/or non-dysplastic BE underwent repair. Quality of life (QOL) metrics, manometry, EGD, and pH testing were administered pre- and postoperatively.Results
Fifty patients underwent repair. There was no mortality and four major complications. At 13-month follow-up, there was one (2 %) clinical recurrence, and two (4 %) asymptomatic fundus herniations. Mean DeMeester scores improved from 57.2 to 7.7 (p < 0.0001). Control of preoperative symptoms was achieved in 90 % with 6 % resumption of antisecretory medication. All QOL metrics improved significantly.Conclusions
The hybrid Nissen–Hill repair for patients with PEH and BE appears safe and clinically effective at short-term follow-up. It is hoped that the combined structural components may reduce the rate of recurrence compared to existing repairs.8.
Purpose
Patients with liver cirrhosis may require inguinal hernia repair. It is unknown if surgical approach, laparoscopic or open, affects outcomes in this high-risk patient population. This study compares complications, deaths, and length of stay between open and laparoscopic inguinal hernias in patients with liver disease.Methods
All patients (N = 145,780) who were diagnosed with inguinal hernia (ICD-9-codes: 550.00, 550.02, 550.10, 550.12, 550.90, and 550.92) and had unilateral repair surgery (current procedure codes: 49505, 49507, 49525, and 49650) between 2005 and 2014 were identified from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database. Data collected included patient demographics, comorbid conditions, postsurgical diagnosis, and outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression models were employed to evaluate the associations between various outcomes and surgical approach.Results
The percentage of open inguinal hernia repair (OIHR) decreased from 84.08% in 2005 to 74.66% in 2014. The mean MELD score was 9.09 ± 4.02 among open surgery patient group, which was higher than the mean MELD score (8.03 ± 2.78) among laparoscopic surgery group. After propensity score matching for patient characteristics, open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia groups had similar length of stay with a slightly longer operation time being observed among laparoscopic group. Overall complications rates were similar (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.–1.15, p = 0.32) as was overall mortality (0.27% among open surgery patients and 0.12% among laparoscopic patients, OR 0.42, 95% CI 0.15–1.21, p = 0.96).Conclusion
Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair demonstrates similar morbidity and mortality when compared to open repairs in patients with liver disease suggesting that both are viable repair options.9.
Background
Laparoscopic total extraperitoneal repair (TEP) of inguinal hernia has been associated with higher rates of recurrence compared to open methods. The aim of the present study was to determine independent risk factors for recurrence within 2 years after TEP.Methods
This was a single-centre prospective cohort study with consecutive inclusion of patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair from 2010 to 2014. Systematic follow-up was conducted 6 months and 2 years postoperatively. Risk factors for recurrence after 2 years were analysed in univariate and multivariate analyses.Results
A total of 1194 patients underwent TEP for inguinal or femoral hernia in the study period, of which 1047 were eligible for analyses. After 2 years, 56 (5.3%) patients had presented with recurrence. The following factors were associated with recurrence in univariate analyses: body mass index (BMI) >30 (HR 3.64; p = 0.011), medial vs. lateral hernia (HR 2.37; p = 0.004), repair of recurrent hernia vs. primary repair (HR 2.12; p = 0.049), and length of stay >1 day (HR 1.77; p = 0.043). In multivariate analyses, factors independently associated with recurrence after 2 years were BMI >30 (HR 3.74; p = 0.026) and medial vs. lateral hernia (HR 2.39; p = 0.004).Conclusion
The recurrence rate after TEP is higher than reported after open hernia repair. Attempts to decrease the rate should be persuaded. Good surgical technique with precise dissection and correct placement of the mesh, especially in medial hernias and obese patients, may be key points to improve outcomes after TEP.10.
Purpose
The Lichtenstein technique (LT) has been recognized as the standard treatment for inguinal hernia in adults owing to the high recurrence rates of tissue-based repairs. However, Desarda technique (DT) appeared as promising tissue-based repair that provided low incidence of recurrence without the need for implanting prosthetic or foreign materials in the inguinal canal. This meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing DT and LT for primary inguinal hernia in adults aimed to determine which technique had better clinical outcome regarding recurrence and complication rates.Methods
A systematic literature search for RCTs comparing between DT and LT was conducted using electronic databases and Google scholar service. Patients’ characteristics, technical details, recurrence and complication rates, and time to resume daily activities were extracted from the original studies and analyzed.Results
Six RCTs comprising 2159 patients (89% males) were included. No significant difference in the incidence of recurrence between both techniques was detected (OR = 0.946; P = 0.91). The overall complication rate of LT was significantly higher than DT (OR = 1.86; P < 0.001). LT had significantly higher rates of seroma formation and surgical site infection (OR = 2.17; P = 0.007) and (OR = 2.17; P = 0.029), respectively. Postoperative pain, operation time, and time to resume normal activities were comparable in both groups.Conclusion
Both DT and LT provided satisfactory treatment for primary inguinal hernia with low recurrence rates and acceptable rates of complications that were significantly less after DT. More well-designed RCTs with longer follow-up are required for further validation of the DT.11.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the extent of reoperations after hernia repair in Denmark that are being performed at a different facility than the primary repair and thereby investigate whether or not reoperation is a reliable basis for assessment of personal- or facility recurrence rates.Methods
On a national level, we included all groin hernia repairs that had been reoperated a least once from January 1, 1998, to August 19, 2015.Results
A total of 14,264 hernia repairs were included comprising a total of 7371 reoperations. We found that 26 % (n = 1883) of all reoperations were performed at a different healthcare facility. Time to reoperation, age at time of repair and having the primary repair performed at a private facility were all independent risk factors for being reoperated at a different facility in a logistic regression model.Conclusion
One in four patients underwent repair for recurrent hernia at a different facility than the prior repair. Having the primary repair performed at a private hospital increased the risk of being reoperated at a different facility compared to having it performed at a public facility. This indicates that personal or institutional reoperation rates are underestimating the true reoperation rates, unless they can be followed in central registries or personal contact is made to all patients.12.

Purpose
Inguinal hernia repair is frequently performed in premature infants. Evidence on optimal management and timing of repair, as well as related medical costs is still lacking. The objective of this study was to determine the direct medical costs of inguinal hernia, distinguishing between premature infants who had to undergo an emergency procedure and those who underwent elective inguinal hernia repair.Methods
This cohort study based on medical records concerned premature infants with inguinal hernia who underwent surgical repair within 3 months after birth in a tertiary academic children’s hospital between January 2010 and December 2013. Two groups were distinguished: patients with incarcerated inguinal hernia requiring emergency repair and patients who underwent elective repair. Real medical costs were calculated by multiplying the volumes of healthcare use with corresponding unit prices. Nonparametric bootstrap techniques were used to derive a 95 % confidence interval (CI) for the difference in mean costs.Results
A total of 132 premature infants were included in the analysis. Emergency surgery was performed in 29 %. Costs of hospitalization comprised 65 % of all costs. The total direct medical costs amounted to €7418 per premature infant in the emergency repair group versus €4693 in the elective repair group. Multivariate analysis showed a difference in costs of €1183 (95 % CI ?1196; 3044) in favor of elective repair after correction for potential risk factors.Conclusion
Emergency repair of inguinal hernia in premature infants is more expensive than elective repair, even after correction for multiple confounders. This deserves to be taken into account in the debate on timing of inguinal hernia repair in premature infants.13.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to describe our policy in selecting different types of anaesthesia and anterior tension-free techniques for the repair of recurrent inguinal hernias previously treated by anterior approach and to evaluate early and late outcomes.Methods
The medical records of 111 patients who underwent recurrent inguinal hernia repair by anterior approach in the period 2000–2013 were reviewed. Fifty patients (45 %) were over 70 years old and 63 (56.7 %) had one or more co-morbidities. Hernias with large defects were the most frequently observed (59.5 %), and no-mesh techniques were the most frequent failed repair (75.7 %). Different anterior tension-free techniques and types of anaesthesia were used, depending on hernia and patient characteristics. Seventy-three patients (65.8 %) were operated on an outpatient basis.Results
Mean follow-up period was 89 months (range 10–183). No perioperative deaths, medical events, or visceral injuries were recorded. Early postoperative complications occurred in 11 patients: 4 haematomas (3.6 %), 5 seromas (4.5 %), 1 superficial wound infection (0.9 %) and 1 ischemic orchitis (0.9 %). Late complications consisted in 3 cases of chronic moderate pain (3.2 %) and 2 re-recurrences (2.1 %).Conclusions
Recurrent inguinal hernia previously treated by open anterior technique can be repaired using the same approach, often on an outpatient basis, with a low rate of recurrence and postoperative complications. To be safe and effective, the repair should be performed by appropriately trained surgeons, well versed in the use of different types of anaesthesia and surgical techniques depending on patient and hernia characteristics.14.

Purpose
Lightweight meshes (LWM) have shown benefits compared to heavyweight meshes (HWM) in terms of less postoperative pain and stiffness in open inguinal hernia repair. It appears to have similar advantages also in TEP, but concerns exist if it may be associated with higher recurrence rates. The aim of the study was to compare reoperation rate for recurrence of LWM to HWM in laparoscopic totally extra-peritoneal (TEP) repair.Methods
All groin hernias operated on with TEP between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2013 at surgical units participating in The Swedish Hernia Register were eligible. Data included clinically important hernia variables. Primary endpoint was reoperation for recurrence. Median follow-up time was 6.1 years (0–11.5) with minimum 2.5 years postoperatively.Results
In total, 13,839 repairs were included for statistical analysis and 491 were re-operated for recurrence. Multivariate analysis demonstrated significantly increased risk of reoperation for recurrence in LWM 4.0% (HR 1.56, P?<?0.001) compared to HWM 3.2%. This was most evident in direct hernias (HR 1.75, P?<?0.001) and in hernia repairs with a defect >?3 cm (HR 1.54, P?<?0.021). The risk of recurrence with use of LWM in indirect hernias and in hernia repairs with a defect <?1.5 cm was more comparable to HWM.Conclusions
Lightweight meshes were associated with an increased risk of reoperation for recurrence compared to HWM. While direct hernias and larger hernia defects may benefit from HWM to avoid increased recurrence rates, LWM is recommended to be used in indirect and smaller hernia defects in TEP repair.16.
Purpose
Different techniques and mesh materials are used in parastomal hernia repair with recently reported recurrence rates ranging from 10 to 28%. The aim of this cohort study was to examine the risk of recurrence and chronic pain after Sugarbaker or keyhole parastomal hernia repair with intraperitoneal placement of a polyester monofilament macroporous composite mesh.Methods
Data on all patients undergoing parastomal hernia repair with Parietex? Composite Parastomal Mesh at our institution during a 4-year period were examined. Patients with urostomy were excluded. A team of three experienced surgeons performed all repairs. Follow-up including physical examination was done after 10 days, 6 and 12 months, and hereafter as annual structured telephone interviews. Patients suspected of hernia recurrence were offered computed tomography scan. Chronic pain was defined as pain requiring out-patient visit(s) and/or regular use of analgesics.Results
79 patients (Sugarbaker, n = 69; keyhole, n = 10) were included. Of those, 72 procedures were performed laparoscopically and seven by open technique. Two patients were reoperated within 30 days with removal of the mesh. In total, seven (9%) patients had parastomal hernia recurrence (reoperation, n = 3; conservative management, n = 4) during follow-up of median 12 months (range 0–49 months). In univariable logistic analyses, type of stoma was associated with recurrence (ileostomy 28% vs colostomy 3%, p = 0.007). Three patients (4%) reported chronic pain.Conclusion
In this study, we found low rates of recurrence and chronic pain following parastomal hernia repair using intraperitoneal reinforcement with a polyester monofilament composite mesh.17.
Purpose
To present a new and alternative method for surgical treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia after total extraperitoneal patch plastic (TEP).Methods
From January 2005 to September 2015, 35 patients (34 male, 1 female; mean age 65 ± 12.6 years) with recurrent inguinal hernia following TEP were operated at the Kliniken Essen-Mitte using a simplified method consisting of re-fixation of the primary mesh to the inguinal ligament by an anterior approach.Results
The mean operating time was 47 ± 22 min. All complications were minor with an overall incidence of 6%. After a mean follow-up of 54 months one re-recurrence was observed.Conclusions
This Simplified Hernia Repair is safe and avoids additional foreign body implantation. Therefore, it is our method of choice for recurrent inguinal hernias after TEP.18.
Purpose
Guidelines recommend that the reoperation of a recurrent inguinal hernia should be by the opposite approach (anterior–posterior) than the primary repair. However, the level of evidence supporting the guidelines is partially low. The purpose of this study was to compare re-reoperation rates between repairs performed according to the guidelines with the ones performed against it.Methods
This cohort study was based on the Danish Hernia Database, including 4344 patients with two inguinal hernia repairs in the same groin. Four groups were compared as follows: Lichtenstein–Lichtenstein vs. Lichtenstein–Laparoscopy, and Laparoscopy–Laparoscopy vs. Laparoscopy–Lichtenstein. The outcome was re-reoperation rates, which were compared by crude rates, cumulated rates, and hazard ratios.Results
There was no difference in the re-reoperation rates when the primary repair was laparoscopic, regardless of the type of reoperation. However, Lichtenstein–Lichtenstein had a significantly higher re-reoperation rate compared with Lichtenstein–Laparoscopy (crude rate 8.7 vs. 3.1 %, p value <0.0005; Hazard Ratio 2.46, 95 % CI 1.76–3.43). Further analysis showed that the higher risk of re-reoperation for Lichtenstein–Lichtenstein was only seen if the primary hernia was medial.Conclusions
A primary Lichtenstein repair of a primary medial hernia should be reoperated with a laparoscopic repair. A primary Lichtenstein repair of a primary lateral hernia can be reoperated with either a Lichtenstein or a laparoscopic repair according to surgeon’s choice. For a primary laparoscopic operation, the method of repair of a recurrent hernia did not affect the re-reoperation rate.19.

Purpose
In Japan, inguinal hernia repair is widely performed with local anesthesia. The objective of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of intravenous dexmedetomidine as a sedation agent with local anesthesia in inguinal hernia repair.Methods
We performed this randomized, single-blind study for 200 patients who were scheduled to undergo inguinal hernia repair with local anesthesia. Patients were randomly divided into two groups (dexmedetomidine group: Group D, midazolam group: Group M). The primary outcome was to evaluate the safety of intravenous dexmedetomidine. Secondary outcomes were to analyze results of operators’ surveys and patients’ questionnaires and evaluate implementation of conscious sedation.Results
Incidence of respiratory depression was significantly higher in Group M than Group D (p = 0.03). Other adverse events examined did not differ significantly. All three operators’ questionnaires indicated that results were better in Group D than Group M. More than 70% of patients in both groups were satisfied with the surgery. More than 80% of Group D patients and 74% of Group M patients achieved a state of conscious sedation.Conclusion
This study demonstrated that intravenous dexmedetomidine during hernia repair with local anesthesia is safe and the results were satisfactory to both operators and patients.20.
