Laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in girls
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998Laparoscopy 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, 1996ABSTRACTLaparoscopic 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.

The Development of Inguinal Herniorrhaphy
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1984The 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.

Transabdominal Preperitoneal Herniorrhaphy.
Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 1994There have been multiple different approaches to laparoscopic herniorrhaphy with a tendency toward exposure of the preperitoneal space with placement of a prosthesis into this area. The transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) approach is a reasonably simple, safe repair, resulting in a less than 1% recurrence rate with minimal complications.

Urology, 1975
The preperitoneal approach to inguinal hernia repair can easily be applied at the time of open prostatectomy. Our experience with this procedure is reported, and the surgical technique is described. A preperitoneal herniorrhaphy is easy to perform through the same incision as the prostatectomy, avoids opening new surgical spaces, adds little to the ...

Convalescence After Herniorrhaphy
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972To 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 ...

Prospective Comparison between Laparoscopic Preperitoneal Herniorrhaphy and Open Mesh Herniorrhaphy
The American Surgeon, 2001Controversy persists regarding the most effective inguinal hernia repair. The purpose of this study is to compare the complications, charges, patient satisfaction, and recovery time between laparoscopic (LH) and open mesh herniorrhaphy (OH). A nonrandomized prospective analysis of 233 consecutive inguinal hernia repairs was performed over a 12-month ...

The American Journal of Surgery, 1987
The results of 6,321 consecutive herniorrhaphies have been reported. Over 20 percent of the cases were referred recurrences when first seen. Ninety-one percent of the patients were followed from 2 to 14 years, with an overall recurrence rate of 0.7 percent.

Convalescence after Inguinal Herniorrhaphy
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1994The aim of this investigation was to evaluate factors influencing the length of convalescence after ambulant inguinal hernia repair.One hundred and twenty-three patients were followed up to assess when they returned to work, considered that they had regained full working capacity, and resumed leisure time activities.

Herniorrhaphy in Patients Over 70
Archives of Surgery, 1961At Colorado State Hospital, the patient population is over 6,000; 1,700 of these are over the age of 70. In this large geriatric population, many of the problems and complications of the aged are encountered. In order to evaluate the results following herniorrhaphy in the aged population, a survey of all herniorrhaphies done during the past 10 years ...
