PATHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND APPLICATION OF LAPAROSCOPIC TOTALLY EXTRAPERITONEAL USING 3D MESH TO TREAT BILATERAL INGUINAL HERNIA IN ADULTS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to describe pathological characteristics and application of laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) using 3D mesh to treat bilateral inguinal hernia in adults. Methods: Descriptive study 60 patients with bilateral inguinal hernias undergoing laparoscopic TEP surgery using 3D mesh at Thanh Nhan Hospital from January 2017 to November 2020. Results: All the patients were male, mean age were 51.0 years. Direct hernias were more commons comprising of 63.3%. Classification according to Nyhus type I 3.3%, type II 26.7%, class IIIA 63.3% and IIIB 6.7%. 91.7% preperitoneal cavity were dissection with finger and CO2. 63.3% of the hernia sac was pushed into the abdomen. The small 3D mesh was used in most case (80%), 1 case (1,7%) was stitched fixation mesh. Intraoperative complications were 15%. 1.7% must be additional trocar. The average mesh put time was 21.1 minutes. The mean operative time was 74.9 minutes. Conclusion: TEP laparoscopic surgery using 3D mesh is a safe, feasible, and effective method in bilateral inguinal hernia in adults.
