Controversies in Inguinal Hernia
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2021Inguinal hernias represent one of the most common pathologic conditions presenting to the general surgeon.

The review showed the following: The risk of incarceration, the failure of preoperative

Giant inguinal herniae present a major challenge in management. This case details clinical features of an enormous inguinoscrotal hernia associated with septic gangrene and elephantiasis of the scrotum. Two initial operations were required for control of sepsis, followed by a two‐staged hernial repair, involving a total colectomy and a subsequent ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1993
(1) Think "little" when approaching the pediatric hernia. (2) The landmarks, incision, and operative technique are different from the approach in adults. (3) Do not operate unnecessarily. Delay correction of noncommunicating hydroceles in neonates for 3 to 4 months, and do not routinely explore the contralateral side unless there is suspicion of hernia.

Hernias—Inguinal and umbilical
The American Journal of Surgery, 1961Abstract A brief consideration has been given to the clinical problems of both inguinal and umbilical hernias, stressing that a hydrocele is in truth a hernia-hydrocele combination and that most true umbilical hernias close spontaneously. We believe that an aggressive approach to inguinal hernias is indicated, with operative intervention taking ...

Abstract The treatment of inguinal hernia is discussed with emphasis upon the careful execution of each operative step and avoiding the choice of a method until after the nature and extent of the weakness has been determined. Stress is placed upon the wide resection of the peritoneal sac, firm closure of the transversalis fascia, including the ...
