Abstract
Inguinal hernia is one of the most frequently encountered surgical
problems and its surgical treatment continues to undergo technical
modifications, the introduction of minimally invasive surgery added a
possible new dimension.
In this work 10 patients with 11 inguinal hernias were divided into
two groups:
Group (4): included 5 patients with 5 inguinal hernias and as treated by
TAPP repair.
Group (B): included 5 patients with 6 hernias and was treated bv TEP
repair.
Both groups were compared in relation to the operative time from
incision to closure morbidity related to the procedure includinu pain,
numbness, parathesia in the groin, interval before returning tu full activityhospital stay and recurrence.
Laparoscopic procedures were done under general anesthesia, The
operative time was in group (A) from 70 to 130 with a mean CJ7minuts
while the operative time was in group (8) from 60 toll 0 with a mean 94
minutes with on 1\’ 16 minutes extra time for the bilateral hernia,
There was no mortality or major intraoperative compl icat ion in
both groups, only one case was converted to the open technique in the
T APP due to excess peritoneal fat which obscures the field and in another
case there was injury to the inferior epigastric artery controlled by
endoc\ipping, the minor postoperative complications were mainly scrorna
