Abstract

Background: To evaluate the results of applying techniques and the treatment outcomes of inguinal hernia repair using transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) laparoscopic surgery with self-fixing mesh (Progrip) at Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. Materials and methods: A retrospective combined with prospective study to evaluate the initial results of TAPP surgery using self-fixing mesh for inguinal hernia treatment at Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital from January 2024 to December 2024. Results: A total of 33 patients underwent TAPP surgery using self-fixing mesh for inguinal hernia treatment over a two-year period at Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. The average age of the study subjects was 61,1 ± 13,4 years. 29/33 patients were male, 15.2% of patients had bilateral mesh surgery. The average surgical time was 89.2 ± 21.9 minutes, the average postoperative hospital stay was 6.22 ± 1.8 days. The overall complication rate was 13.4%. Conclusion: TAPP surgery for inguinal hernia repair using self-fixing mesh is a safe and effective surgical method with few complications.
