Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the effects of laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) and mesh-plug tension-free hernia repair in the treatment of elderly patients with inguinal hernia.

Methods

A total of 111 elderly patients with inguinal hernia who were admitted to Xuancheng People 's Hospital from April 2020 to May 2022 were selected and divided into the control group (55 cases) and the observation group (56 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group was treated with mesh-plug filling for tension-free hernia repair, and the observation group was treated with TEP. The perioperative indicators, preoperative and 7 d serological indicators, quality of life, and complications within 3 months after surgery were compared between the two groups.

Results

Compared with the control group, the observation group had less bleeding during the operation and a shorter time to restore normal activity, as well as a shorter duration of postoperative pain and hospital stay. Compared with pre-surgery, 7 d after surgery serum hs-CRP、CRP and PCT levels in the two groups increased, which were lower in the observation group than in the control group. The WBC count, neutrophil percentage, erythrocyte aggregation index increased in both groups, but the detection values in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. Various scores of quality of life all increased in both groups, and the scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group. The total incidence of complication in that observation group is lower than that in the control group within three months after operation. All the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). In 3 months of follow-up, there was no significant difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups (P>0.05).

Conclusion

Laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair for inguinal hernia in elderly patients has the advantages of a milder inflammatory reaction in the body, shorter postoperative recovery time, reduced incidence of postoperative complications in patients, and improved quality of life, with little effect on hemorheological index of patients.
