Resumen
BARRAGAN, Francisco; DIAZ PIETRINI, Magdalena; CINGOLANI, Pablo A. y IUDICA, Fernando M.. Outcomes of laparoscopic transabdominal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair with single mesh in bilateral direct inguinal hernias. Rev. argent. cir. [online]. 2022, vol.114, n.1, pp.12-19. ISSN 2250-639X. http://dx.doi.org/10.25132/raac.v114.n1.1637.
Background:
The laparoscopic approach has clear advantages for repairing bilateral hernias and recurrent hernias. The use of a single mesh as an option in the laparoscopic treatment of direct bilateral inguinal hernias with the transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) technique, may reduce the recurrence rate and chronic pain.
Objective:
The aim of this study is to analyze the benefits of single mesh for the treatment of bilateral inguinal hernias with the TAPP technique.
Material and methods:
We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with bilateral direct inguinal hernias undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair with the TAPP technique using a single mesh.
Results:
Between January 2016 and January 207 177 patients underwent inguinal hernia repair. Of the 93 patients with bilateral hernias, a single mesh was used in 39, which were included in this study.
Conclusion:
The use of a single mesh is a safe option for the laparoscopic treatment of direct bilateral inguinal hernias with the TAPP technique.
