Laparoscopic Hernia Repair

2015
From January 1992 to February 1993 a total of 361 inguinal hernia repairs were performed in our unit. We routinely performed the Shouldice repair. In 60 patients, 46 men and 14 women, 19-82 year old, we closed the inguinal defect with a patch, performing a "tension-free" repair by a laparoscopic technique.

Laparoscopic hernia repair

Medical Journal of Australia, 1993
In this study, 101 consecutive laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repairs (LTPR) were performed in 62 patients by a single surgeon. The series began in April 1991 and involved repair of 49 direct, 41 indirect, 4 femoral, 3 umbilical, 3 sliding, and 1 incisional hernias.

Laparoscopic repair of recurrent hernia

The American Journal of Surgery, 1995
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of a laparoscopic approach to recurrent inguinal hernia repair which dissected the entire inguinal floor and repaired all potential areas of recurrence without producing tension. Both a transabdominal preperitoneal and a totally extraperitoneal laparoscopic approach were utilized.

Incisional hernia repair

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2003
Incisional ventral hernias are a common problem encountered by surgeons, with over 100,000 repairs being performed annually in the United States. Although many predisposing factors for incisional ventral hernia are patient-related, some factors such as type of primary closure and materials used may reduce the overall incidence of incisional ventral ...

Femoral Hernia Repair

1984
In most cases of femoral hernia the diameter of the femoral canal, through which the femoral hernia protrudes, is quite narrow, often measuring less than 1.5 cm. By approaching the hernia from below, it is simple to free the sac, open it, reduce the hernia, and amputate the sac.

Femoral hernia repair

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2003
Femoral hernia repair has a long history. In the nineteenth century, simple closure of the femoral orifice by the femoral approach was favored. Such renowned surgeons as Bassini, Marcy, and Cushing authored papers about the femoral approach to femoral hernia. The recurrence rate was so high, however, that it was replaced by the inguinal approach.

Hiatal Hernia Repair

2003
The history of surgery for hiatal hernia and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has paralleled our gradual understanding of the physiological features of the esophagus. The association between GERD and esophagitis was not established until the 1940s, and much controversy arose concerning the relationship between hiatal hernia and GERD.

Laparoscopic Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair

Surgical Endoscopy, 2002
Adult-congenital diaphragmatic hernias and chronic traumatic diaphragmatic hernias are uncommon entities that are often technically challenging to repair. There is growing experience with a minimal access approach to these defects.We reviewed the English-language literature using a MEDLINE search for "diaphragmatic hernia" and "laparoscopy."We found 19

Laparoscopic Paraesophageal Hernia Repair

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2013
The last 2 decades have witnessed a revolution in the treatment of patients with paraesophageal hernia (PEH). Nowadays, the laparoscopic repair with fundoplication is considered as the primary treatment modality in most academic centers for symptomatic patients. Three findings have clearly emerged: (1) this procedure is technically demanding; (2) it is

Repair of Parastomal Hernias

Advances in Surgery
Parastomal hernias are an inevitable consequence of ostomy formation and their repairs remain a challenge to many surgeons. With multiple systems of classification and a multitude of techniques for hernia repair ranging from suture to mesh repair, the literature remains sparse with regards to the optimal method of repair.
