Abstract: | From October 1994 to March 1996 158 inguinal or femoral hernias were repaired in 124 patients through a total extraperitoneal approach. The repairs were done with polypropylene mesh. The patients were seen 6 to 8 weeks postop; until today 57 patients were seen 12 months postop. This method favours an early return to work. Patients with unilateral hernias returned to work after an average of 14 days, patients with bilateral hernias after an average of 19 days. Complications were rare and mostly minor. So far we have seen no recurrences and no mesh related complications. We consider the laparoscopic extraperitoneal mesh repair a safe procedure for inguinal and femoral hernias. |
