Brief Summary:
Background:comparison between percutaneous internal ring suturing vs Conventional Laparoscopic Repair of Congenital Inguinal Hernia in male patients. Methods : this is a prospective randomized study including 109 male patients with 120 CIHs Patients were randomly categorized into two groups. Group A were subjected to laparoscopic disconnection of the hernia sac and narrowing of the internal ring (IR). Group B underwent PIRS. The intended primary outcome was recurrence within 1 year, besides comparing the two techniques regarding operative time, efficacy, safety, cosmetic outcome, and postoperative complications.
Detailed Description:
Introduction Since the 1990s laparoscopy has gained popularity in the management of Congenital inguinal hernia (CIH). Several laparoscopic techniques have been described, including laparoscopic disconnection of the hernial sac with narrowing of the internal ring (IIR) which was described to mimic the open technique, and the extraperitoneal approach involves using various types of needles under laparoscopic guidance to percutaneously secure a suture circumferentially around the internal ring, thus obliterating the sac opening. This study compared the short-term outcome of percutaneous internal ring suturing (PIRS) versus laparoscopic disconnection of the hernial sac with narrowing of the internal ring in children.
Materials and Methods: This study included 109 male patients with 120 CIHs during the period from May 2022 to May 2024. Patients were randomly categorized into two groups. Group A were subjected to laparoscopic disconnection of the hernia sac and narrowing of the internal ring (IR). Group B underwent PIRS. The intended primary outcome was recurrence within 1 year, besides comparing the two techniques regarding operative time, efficacy, safety, cosmetic outcome, and postoperative complications.
