Abstract:
44 patients with 47 recurrent inguinal hernias entered a prospective study. All patients were operatively managed by a standardized technique using a polypropylene (Prolene) mesh inserted through a pre-peritoneal approach. Operating in the pre-peritoneal space avoids dissection of the scared cord and the "inlay" prosthetic mesh safely creates a new "fascia transversalis" with a low rate of recurrences. All patients were personally controlled every 6 months with a follow-up time of 12 to 60 months (mean 20.2 months). The low postoperative morbidity included only one seroma, no infection and no testicular complications. We observed one recurrence occurring 6 months after surgery (2%). The described operative technique using an inlay patch is recommended as the therapy of choice in all recurrent groin hernias.
