Comparison of laparoscopic and open tension-free repair of recurrent inguinal hernias: a prospective randomized study

Background The current prospective randomized controlled clinical study aimed to assess the short- and long-term results of recurrent inguinal hernia repair, and to compare the results for transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) procedures with those for open tension-free repair. Methods For this study, 82 patients were randomly assigned to undergo TAPP (group A, n = 24), TEP (group B, n = 26), or open Lichtenstein hernioplasty (group C, n = 32). All the patients with recurrent inguinal hernias had undergone previous repair using conventional open procedures. Physical examination showed Nyhus type II hernia in the vast majority of the patients (59%). High-risk patients (American Society of Anesthesiology [ASA] III or IV); coagulation disorders; previous abdominal or pelvic surgery; and irreducible, congenital, and massive scrotal or sliding hernias were excluded from the study. Results There was a statistically significant difference (p = 0.001) in operating time favoring the open procedure. The intensity of postoperative pain was greater in the open hernia repair group 24 h, 48 h, and 7 days after surgery (p = 0.001), with a greater consumption of pain medication among these patients (p < 0.004). The median time until return to work was 14 days for group A, 13 days for Group g, and 20 days for group C. The comparison was in favor of laparoscopically treated patients. Nine recurrences (4 in the laparoscopic groups and 5 in the open group) were documented within 3 years of follow-up evaluation. Conclusion Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (TAPP or TEP) is the method of choice for dealing with recurrent inguinal hernia.     

腹腔镜腹股沟疝修补术的术式选择

目的比较经腹腹膜前补片植入术(TAPP)和全腹膜外补片植入术(TEP)的安全性和有效性,探讨腹腔镜腹股沟疝修补术的术式选择。方法回顾性分析1997年1月至2005年1月行腹腔镜腹股沟疝修补术的235例(274例次)患者的临床资料,其中TAPP 139例(163例次),TEP 96例(111例次),随访时间6～24个月(中位时间15个月)。结果手术无中转,TAPP和TEP在手术时间、术后住院天数、术后疼痛分数VAS、2周以内恢复非限制性活动人数上差异无统计学意义(均 P>0．05);TAPP和TEP的复发率分别为1．8％和0．9％(P=0．524),总并发症率分别为15．3％和 10．8％(P=0．282),前3位并发症依次为血清肿(5．5％比4．5％,P=0．707),暂时性神经感觉异常 (5．5％比3．6％,P=0．464)和尿潴留(3．1％比2．7％,P=1．000);TAPP住院费用高于TEP(P= 0．000)。结论 TAPP和TEP都是安全有效的无张力手术,外科医生的临床经验比术式选择更为重要。     

A randomized, controlled, clinical study of laparoscopic vs open tension-free inguinal hernia repair

Background: The aim of this prospective, randomized, controlled clinical study was to compare laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) hernia repair with a standard tension-free open mesh repair (open). Methods: A total of 108 low-risk patients with unilateral (primary or recurrent) or bilateral hernias were randomized to TAPP (group 1 = 52 cases) or open (group 2 = 56 cases). The outcome measures included operating time, complications, postoperative pain, return to normal activity, operating theater costs, and recurrences. Results: The mean operative time was longer for the TAPP than for the open group only in unilateral primary hernias. At rest, the median Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score was higher for group 1 than group 2 at 48 h postoperatively. Mild to discomforting pain in the inguinal region after 7 days, night pain after 30 days, and inguinal hardening after 3 months were more frequent in group 2 than group 1. No significant differences were observed in return to normal activities between the groups. One hernia recurrence was observed after 1 month in group 1. TAPP was significantly more expensive than open. Conclusions: TAPP was associated with less postoperative pain than open. The increase in operating theater costs, however, was dramatic and was not compensated by shorter time away from work. TAPP should not be adopted routinely unless its costs can be drastically reduced. Received: 10 June 1997/Accepted: 6 October 1997     

Open or endoscopic total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair? A systematic review

Background Although a large number of surgeons currently perform endoscopic hernia surgery using a total extraperitoneal (TEP) approach, reviews published to date are based mainly on trials that compare laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair with various types of open inguinal hernia repair. Methods A qualitative analysis of randomized trials comparing TEP with open mesh or sutured repair. Results In this review, 4,231 patients were included in 23 trials. In 10 of 15 trials, TEP repair was associated with longer surgery time than open repair. A shorter postoperative hospital stay after TEP repair than after open repair was reported in 6 of 11 trials. In 8 of 9 trials, the time until return to work was significantly shorter after TEP repair. Hospital costs were significantly higher for TEP than for open repair in all four trials that included an economic evaluation. Most trials (n = 14) reported no differences in subsequent recurrence rates between TEP and open repair. Conclusions The findings showed that endoscopic TEP repair is associated with longer surgery time, shorter postoperative hospital stay, earlier return to work, and recurrence rates similar to those for open inguinal hernia repair. The procedure involves greater expenses for hospitals, but appears to be cost effective from a societal perspective. The TEP technique is a serious option for mesh repair of primary hernias.     

腹腔镜下不同术式与开放手术疝修补术治疗腹股沟疝的疗效

目的比较腹腔镜下经腹腔腹膜前疝修补法（TAPP）、完全腹膜外疝修补法（TEP）与开放式无张力疝修补术（Lichtenstein）治疗腹股沟疝的疗效及安全性。 方法选择2015年3月至2017年8月就诊于松滋市人民医院的150例腹股沟疝患者,按照随机数字表法分为3组,Lichtenstein组、TAPP组、TEP组,各50例。对比3组手术相关指标、并发症及术后6个月复发率,并观察围手术期患者应激反应[皮质醇（Cor）、去甲肾上腺素（NE）、醛固酮（ALD）]变化。 结果3组手术时间、术后并发症发生率比较,差异均无统计学意义（P>0.05）;Lichtenstein组术中出血量、术后12 h疼痛数字评分（NRS）、术后下床活动时间及住院时间均比TAPP组和TEP组高,住院费用比TAPP组和TEP组低,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;TEP组术后12 h NRS评分、术后下床活动时间及住院费用比TAPP组低,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;Lichtenstein组术后3 d Cor、NE及ALD水平,复发率比TAPP组和TEP组高,差异均有统计学意义（P<0.05）。 结论Lichtenstein术治疗腹股沟疝操作相对简单、费用低,腹腔镜下TAPP、TEP术具有应激创伤小、疼痛轻、并发症少、复发率低等特点,临床应结合患者具体病情选择适宜的手术修补方式。     

Recurrence and complications after laparoscopic versus open inguinal hernia repair: results of a prospective randomized multicenter trial

BACKGROUND: The aim of this prospective randomized multicenter trial was to evaluate the recurrence rates and complications of open versus laparoscopic repairs of inguinal hernias. METHODS: Patients with primary unilateral inguinal hernias were randomized to Shouldice repair, Bassini operation, tension-free hernioplasty (Lichtenstein repair), laparoscopic transabdominal extraperitoneal hernioplasty (TEP), or laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty (TAPP). The primary outcome parameter was the rate of recurrence at 3 years. The secondary outcome was the rate of intraoperative, perioperative, and long-term complications. Follow-up comprised of clinical examination after 1, 2, and 3 years. RESULTS: Three hundred and sixty-five patients were randomly assigned to one of the five procedures. The intention-to-treat analysis showed that the cumulative 3-year recurrence rate was 3.4% in the Bassini group, 4.7% in the Shouldice group, 0% in the Lichtenstein group, 4.7% in the TAPP group, and 5.9% in the TEP group (p = 0.48). Comparing open (Bassini, Shouldice, Lichtenstein) versus laparoscopic (TAPP, TEP) techniques (p = 0.29) and comparing the use of mesh prostheses (Lichtenstein, TAPP, TEP) versus suturing techniques (Bassini, Shouldice) (p = 0.74) showed no significance in the rate of recurrence. The rates of intraoperative (p = 0.15), perioperative (p = 0.09), and long-term complications (p = 0.13) were without significance between the five groups. Comparing mesh techniques (Lichtenstein, TAPP, TEP) versus suturing techniques (Bassini, Shouldice) showed no significance in the rate of complications. The per-protocol analysis for the comparison of mesh (Lichtenstein, TAPP, TEP) versus suturing (Bassini, Shouldice) techniques revealed that recurrences (p = 0.74), intraoperative (p = 0.64), perioperative (p = 0.27), and long-term complications (p = 0.91) were evenly distributed. CONCLUSIONS: In this multicenter study, no significant difference in the recurrence rate and complications between laparoscopic and open methods of hernia repair was revealed.     

Hernioplasty and simultaneous laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a prospective randomized study of open tension-free versus laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair

BACKGROUND: The laparoscopic repair of unilateral primary groin hernia remains controversial. This randomized study evaluates the outcome of the laparoscopic technique in hernia repair in patients undergoing simultaneous laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and compares laparoscopic repair with tension-free open groin hernia repair. METHODS: Sixty-four low-risk patients with symptomatic chronic calculous cholecystitis and synchronous unilateral primary inguinal hernia were randomized to undergo either laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal mesh hernia repair (TAPP) and LC or LC and open tension-free hernia repair. RESULTS: The operating time was longer in the TAPP and LC group (mean +/- SD = 121 +/- 32 minutes) than in the LC and open group (95 +/- 27 minutes) (P <.01). The mean operating costs were higher in the TAPP and LC group ($1235 versus $1080) (P <.03). The intensity of postoperative pain at rest was greater in the LC and open group at 24 hours (P <.01) and 48 hours (P <.05), with a greater consumption of pain medication (P <.01). No differences between the 2 groups were found in terms of postoperative complications, disability period before return to work, or hernia recurrences. CONCLUSIONS: The totally laparoscopic procedure does not result in a significant benefit other than improved comfort in the first 2 postoperative days. However, laparoscopic hernia repair is considerably more difficult to perform than open tension-free hernioplasty. Thus, the totally laparoscopic approach should be performed only by experienced laparoscopic surgeons with special expertise in hernia surgery.     

Recurrent inguinal hernia: a ten-year review

BACKGROUND: This study evaluates the results obtained in recurrent inguinal hernia repair over the past ten years in a general hospital using laparoscopic (LAP) and open tension-free mesh (Lichtenstein) procedures. METHODS: A prospective controlled study with 258 recurrent inguinal hernias in 235 patients over a ten-year period. The main outcome measurements were recurrence rate, operating time, hospital stay, postoperative complications, and cost. RESULTS: There were 10 recurrences (4.3%): 7 in the Lichtenstein group (5.7%) and 3 (2.2%) in the LAP group (P = nonsignificant [NS]). There were 15 (12.2%) postoperative complications in the Lichtenstein group and 6 (4.4%) in the LAP group (P =0.04). The operating room costs were higher in the LAP group, but this difference was offset by a significantly shorter hospital stay, shorter operating time, and earlier return to work. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic repair is an effective option for the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia. The TEP approach combines the advantages of minimal invasive surgery and those of tension-free mesh repair, reducing operating time, postoperative morbidity, and recurrence rate.     

Comparison of the open tension-free mesh-plug, transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP), and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) laparoscopic techniques for primary unilateral inguinal hernia repair: a prospective randomized controlled trial

Background  

The open tension-free mesh-plug hernia technique, transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) technique, and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) laparoscopic technique all are common surgical procedures for primary unilateral inguinal hernia repair. However, the choice of the right surgical procedure still is controversial in China. This study aimed to compare open tension-free hernioplasty with two laparoscopic hernia repairs.     

A comparison of outcomes between open and laparoscopic surgical repair of recurrent inguinal hernias

Background

Inguinal hernia recurrence after surgical repair is a major concern. The authors report their experience with open and laparoscopic repair of recurrent inguinal hernias.

Methods

After institutional review board approval, a retrospective review was performed with the charts of 197 patients who had undergone surgical repair of recurrent inguinal hernias from January 2000 through August 2009, and the data for 172 patients who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. Surgical variables and clinical outcomes were compared using Student??s t test, the Mann?CWhitney U test, chi-square, and Fisher??s exact test as appropriate.

Results

The review showed that 172 patients had undergone either open mesh repair (n?=?61) or laparoscopic mesh repair (n?=?111) for recurrent inguinal hernias. Postoperative complications were experienced by 8 patients in the open group and 17 patients in laparoscopic group (p?=?0.70). Five patients (8.2%) in the open group and four patients (3.6%) in the laparoscopic group had re-recurrent inguinal hernias (p?=?0.28). Four patients in the open group (9.5%) and no patients in the laparoscopic group had recurrence during long-term follow-up evaluation (p?=?0.046). In the laparoscopic group, 76 patients (68.5%) underwent total extraperitoneal (TEP) repair, and 35 patients (31.5%) had transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair. Postoperative complications were experienced by 13 patients in the TEP group and 4 patients in the TAPP group (p?=?0.44). Two patients (2.6%) in the TEP group and two patients (5.7%) in the TAPP group had re-recurrent inguinal hernias (p?=?0.59).

Conclusions

This retrospective review showed no statistical difference in the re-recurrence rate between the two techniques during short-term follow-up evaluation. However, the laparoscopic technique had a significantly lower re-recurrence rate than the open technique during long-term follow-up evaluation. Both procedures were comparable in terms of intra- and postoperative complications. Among laparoscopic techniques, TEP and TAPP repair are acceptable methods for the repair of recurrent inguinal hernia. A multicenter prospective randomized control trial is needed to confirm the findings of this study.

目的比较腹腔镜经腹腹膜前疝修补术（laparoscopic trans-abdominal preperitoneal hernia repair,TAPP）与腹腔镜完全腹膜外疝修补术（laparoscopic totally extra-peritoneal,TEP）治疗腹股沟疝的手术疗效。 方法回顾性分析2013年1月至2017年12月,广西医科大学第四附属医院柳州市工人医院行腹腔镜手术治疗的380例单侧腹股沟疝患者的临床资料。其中TAPP组患者233例,TEP组患者147例,分析2组的手术时间、住院时间、住院费用、手术并发症、复发率等,比较2组患者的手术疗效。 结果所有患者术后恢复顺利,2组患者的手术时间、住院时间比较,差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）;TAPP在探查隐匿疝方面较TEP有优势,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）,但TAPP组血清肿的发生率较高,差异有统计学意义（12% vs 4.7%,P<0.05）,2组总体并发症的发生率比较,差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。 结论TAPP与TEP治疗腹股沟疝手术疗效无差异,手术方式的选择根据外科医师的经验选择。     

Randomized controlled trial of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty vs Shouldice repair

Background: There is a scarcity of data on long-term results after laparoscopic hernia repair. Herein we report on the outcome of a group of patients who were followed up for 5 years in a multicenter study on hernia repair. Methods: A total of 100 patients with 127 hernias were randomized to undergo either transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) or Shouldice hernia repair. Follow-up was by clinical examination and standardized questionnaire. Results: Of the 100 patients who underwent surgery, 84 were available for follow-up at 5 years. The TAPP procedure was less painful than the Shouldice repair, with fewer patients receiving narcotic analgesics. The median time to return to 100% activity was shorter in the laparoscopic group (21 days) than in the Shouldice group (40 days). Up to 60 months after the operation, the complication rate was lower in laparoscopically repaired hernias (19/66) than in the open group (25/61). There were two recurrences (3.9%) in the TAPP group and five in the Shouldice group (10.2%). Conclusion: The TAPP hernia repair yields comparable or better results than Shouldice herniorrhaphy in terms of postoperative pain, recovery, and recurrence rate.     

Total endoskopische präperitoneale Netzplastik bei primären und Rezidivleistenhernien Gibt es Unterschiede?

INTRODUCTION: Since 1994 we perform laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) for primary and recurrent inguinal hernias at our institution. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the results of TEP in primary inguinal hernias and recurrent inguinal hernias and to determine whether there are differences in patient data, complication rates and outcome between these two groups. METHODS: In a prospective trial 338 patients were analyzed who underwent 500 laparoscopic TEP repairs. In all, 431 TEP repairs were performed for primary inguinal hernias, and 69 for recurrent inguinal hernias. For data acquisition the SALTC study protocol was used. All patients were clinically examined 3 and 12 months after the operation. RESULTS: The mean operation time was 67.3 min for TEP repair of primary hernias and 68.1 min for TEP repair of recurrent hernias, respectively. The conversion rate to an open procedure was 0%. Conversion from TEP into TAPP was required in 0.5% of patients with primary inguinal hernias and 1.4% of patients with recurrent inguinal hernias. As the sole difference between the two groups the intraoperative complication rate could be identified. In the TEP repair group of recurrent inguinal hernias a higher incidence of injury to the peritoneum and a higher occurrence of bleeding from the epigastric vessels was found (P = 0.03). The postoperative complication rate was identical in the two groups, amounting to 5.1% and 5.7%, respectively. No differences were found in the 1 year follow-up between the two groups. The 1-year recurrence rate was 0.5% for primary hernias. However, in the group of recurrent hernias there have been no recurrences to date. CONCLUSIONS: The use of laparoscopic TEP repair has proven to be a safe and effective treatment in patients with primary and recurrent inguinal hernias. Because of scar tissue with possible adhesions a higher intraoperative complication rate was observed in the TEP repair of recurrent hernias than in TEP repair of primary inguinal hernias. However, no single recurrence was observed in the TEP repair group of recurrent hernias. In our opinion TEP is the optimal hernia repair for recurrent and bilateral inguinal hernias.     

腹腔镜经腹腹膜前修补术与完全腹膜外修补术治疗腹股沟疝的临床疗效及术后血清肿情况分析

目的探讨腹腔镜经腹腹膜前疝修补术（laparoscopic trans-abdominal preperitoneal hernia repair,TAPP）及腹腔镜完全腹膜外疝修补术（laparoscopic totally extra-peritoneal,TEP）治疗腹股沟疝的疗效及术后血清肿发生率,并分析血清肿发生原因及预防治疗措施。 方法回顾性分析2017年1月至2018年6月,北京市顺义区医院腹股沟疝75例患者的临床资料,按照术式不同分为TAPP组（45例）及TEP组（30例）。分别监测2组的手术时间、术后住院时间、住院费用等围术期指标及术后血清肿发生情况。 结果相对于TEP组,TAPP组手术时间明显缩短,差异有统计学意义[（55.50±4.25）min比（65.36±6.52）min,P<0.05]。但TAPP组住院费用高于TEP组,差异有统计学意义[（1.45±0.07）万元比（1.25±0.05）万元,P<0.05]。TAPP组和TEP组术后住院时间比较,差异无统计学意义[（3.25±1.34）d比（3.55±1.20）d,P>0.05]。TAPP组术后血清肿发生率低于TEP组,差异有统计学意义[2.22%（1/45）比13.33%（4/30）,P<0.05]。 结论相对于传统腹股沟疝修补术,TAPP与TEP均具有显著的治疗效果,但TAPP住院费用相对较高。TAPP相对于TEP可降低术后血清肿发生概率。合理的术式选择,准确的术中操作可能是减少术后血清肿发生率的关键。     

不同补片植入方法在腹腔镜腹股沟疝修补术的疗效

目的探讨腹腔镜下腹腔内补片植入（intraperitoneal onlay mesh,IPOM）与腹膜前间隙补片植入[腹腔镜经腹腹膜前疝修补术（laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair,TAPP）和腹腔镜完全腹膜外疝修补术（laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal,TEP）]治疗腹股沟疝的临床效果。比较TAPP和TEP术式的治疗费用和卫生资源利用率。 方法回顾性分析2014年6月至2015年12月,徐州市中心医院收治的153例腹腔镜腹股沟疝修补术（laparascopic inguinal hernia repair,LIHR）患者的临床资料,其中IPOM 102例,TAPP 30例,TEP 21例。比较腹腔镜下IPOM与腹膜前间隙补片植入患者的基本信息与术后临床症状等资料。 结果IPOM组和腹膜前间隙补片植入组慢性疼痛患者分别为18例和1例,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;IPOM组血清肿患者8例,腹膜前间隙补片植入组2例,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;2组患者在感觉障碍、术后感染、住院时间和复发率等方面差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。2组患者治疗后其血清基质金属蛋白酶2（matrix metalloproteinase,MMP）-2（97.55±10.26、98.34±11.06）、MMP-9（128.57±10.26、130.94±10.71）水平均有明显降低,与治疗前对比（201.51±14.61、203.61±16.84）、（198.64±12.64、199.07±11.57）,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）,组间对比差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。TAPP和TEP在检查费用、手术费用、药品费用、护理费用、间接成本和总成本上差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。TAPP和TEP治疗腹股沟疝的疗效相同,但TEP通过减少材料费用提高了资源利用率。 结论腹腔镜下IPOM与腹膜前间隙补片植入都是治疗腹股沟疝的有效手术方式,腹膜前间隙补片植入术治疗效果优于腹腔镜下IPOM。     

Outcome and cost comparison of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair versus Open Lichtenstein technique

Laparoscopic hernia repair has all the advantages of a tension free repair. This study compares the laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) approach with tension-free open hernia repair in terms of operative time, postoperative pain, hospital stay, complications, and cost. Open and TAPP repairs using polypropylene mesh were performed in two groups of 25 male patients. The difference in operative times between the groups was not significant. Mean pain scores (0-100) for the open group were 54.12 +/- 13.06 at 12 hours and 37.24 +/- 11.38 at 24 hours, significantly higher than the corresponding scores of 38.36 +/- 8.21 at 12 hours and 20.92 +/- 8.73 at 24 hours for the TAPP group (P < 0.05). The mean postoperative analgesic dose was 6.72 +/- 2.72 in the TAPP group, which was insignificantly lower than 7.52 +/- 2.00 in the open group. Mean hospital stay was 2.24 +/- 0.97 days in the open group and 1.52 +/- 0.51 in the TAPP group, which was significant (P < 0.05). Twenty patients (80%) in the TAPP group rated themselves highly satisfied with the surgery as compared to 11 patients (44%) in the open group (P < 0.05). There was no recurrence in either group during a mean followup period of 13.5 months (range, 8-28 months). Laparoscopic hernia repair was significantly more expensive than open (1100 US dollars versus 629 US dollars). TAPP repair is superior to open repair in terms of shorter hospital stay, lower postoperative pain, and better patient satisfaction. It is also safe, with no recurrence in a short-term period. This technique will be the operation of choice for the treatment of groin hernia after long-term results have been established in our center.
