Abstract
Background: A protrusion of the contents of the abdominal cavity or preperitoneal fat through a hernia defect in the inguinal area is known as an inguinal hernia. About 15% of adults have an inguinal hernia, & the most common surgical surgery that general surgeons do is mesh hernioplasty. Because it regularly yields excellent outcomes, the Lichtenstein technique is today one of the most widely used approaches in practice. By positioning the mesh in the preperitoneal plane using an open approach, the transinguinal preperitoneal technique (TPT) circumvents these issues.
Aim of the study: To compare the Preperitoneal Prolene Mesh with Lichtenstein’s Prolene Mesh in Inguinal Hernioplasty.
Methods: This prospective & observational study was conducted at General Surgery for a period of 18 months from April 2014 to October 2015, among 50 patients, 25 underwent surgery of inguinal hernia by preperitoneal prolene mesh (group 1) & rest 25 underwent Lichtenstein’s hernia repair (group 2). Patients coming to hospital & diagnosed as a case of inguinal hernia were subjected to complete physical as well as systemic examination before surgery. Visual Analogue Scale was used to identify the intensity of pain at 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 7th day, 15th day, 1 month, 3 month & 6 months. For statistical analysis, the means & standard deviations of the measurements for each group were utilised (SPSS 22.00 for Windows; SPSS inc, Chicago, USA).
