Laparoscopic Umbilical Herniorrhaphy

Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2000
Laparoscopic technique is an alternative approach to ventral hernia repair. This study evaluated the feasibility of performing umbilical hernia repair using a single 5-mm trocar technique.During February 1999 to November 1999, we performed laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair in 16 consecutive patients.

Complications of laparoscopic herniorrhaphy

Surgical Endoscopy, 1993
Anterior inguinal hernia repair is the second-most-commonly performed abdominal operation and has been associated with low morbidity and mortality rates. The principle of laparoscopy has been applied to this surgical problem in a series of 762 patients with 841 inguinal hernias.

Laparoscopic Inguinal Herniorrhaphy

AORN Journal, 1994
Recent advances in laparoscopic techniques present a promising approach to the surgical treatment of inguinal hernias. Higher success rates, better cosmetic results, less pain, and shorter postoperative recovery periods have precipitated an increased consumer demand for laparoscopic rather than traditional herniorrhaphy.

Inguinal herniorrhaphy in women

Hernia, 2005
Inguinal hernias in women are relatively rare, and an outcome in this specific subgroup of hernias has not been documented in the literature. An analysis was performed using data from the prospective recording of 3,696 female inguinal hernia repairs in the national Danish hernia database, in the 5.5 year period from January 1, 1998 to June 30, 2003 ...

The Development of Inguinal Herniorrhaphy

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1984
The history of inguinal herniorrhaphy can be divided into pre- and post- Listerian eras. In this article Bassini's contribution is emphasized along with the preperitoneal approach, the saccular and acquired etiology of herniation, and the use of prostheses or relaxing incisions.

Laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in girls

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998
Laparoscopy has been used to evaluate the contralateral side in inguinal hernias. Once a hernia was identified in such procedures, laparoscopy was terminated and a conventional groin exploration was undertaken. This study presents a purely laparoscopic approach using miniature instruments without the use of a groin incision.The technique was applied in

Laparoscopic Extraperitoneal Herniorrhaphy

AORN Journal, 1996
ABSTRACTLaparoscopic extraperitoneal (LEP) herniorrhaphy procedures allow direct visualization and repair of many types of hernias (eg, direct, indirect, femoral, sliding, bilateral). Common complications of open herniorrhaphy procedures are avoided when LEP herniorrhaphy procedures are used because the peritoneum is not entered.

Convalescence After Herniorrhaphy

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972
To the Editor.— Kerry's recent LETTER ( 218 :740, 1971) about repair and convalescence after inguinal herniorrhaphy leaves an impression that should be corrected. We would agree with Kerry that, generally speaking, the most strenous activities—those involving maximum effort—are better postponed until four weeks have elapsed from operation; thus, a ...
