To analyze the clinical effects of different surgical methods in inguinal hernia patients complicated with cirrhosis ascites.

46 inguinal hernia patients complicated with cirrhosis ascites admitted to our Hospital from April 2017 to September 2018 were retrospective analyzed. According to random number table method, all patients were divided into the observation group (n=23) and the control group (n=23). The control group adopted traditional hernia repair method and the observation group adopted Lichtenstein repair. The operation situation, changes in liver function, the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.

The operative blood loss, operative time, ambulation time and hospital stay time in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The postoperative effective rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05). The incidence of perioperative complications was 13.04% in the observation group and 17.39% in the control group, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in liver function between the observation group and the control group (P>0.05). The incidence of complications was 43.47% in the observation group and 52.17% in the control group during 12 to 36 months follow-up period, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).

In the surgical treatment of patients with inguinal hernia complicated with cirrhotic ascites, tension-free hernia repair is significantly superior to traditional hernia repair, with better postoperative effect, better safety and fewer complications.
