Abstract:
Seroma formation after laparoscopic or robotic inguinal hernia repair is a known complication, causing nuisance to the patient and embarrassment to the surgeon. A method of fixing the lax pseudosac of direct inguinal hernia to Cooper\'s ligament by suturing, to prevent post-operative seroma formation, is discussed in this study. Seventy-two pseudosac fixations were done in a \'figure of eight technique\' using non-absorbable suture in 56 patients. These patients were followed up 2 weeks and 6 weeks post surgery. None developed a seroma. The primary obliteration of pseudosac by suturing with non-absorbable suture to Cooper\'s ligament is a cheap and reliable method for prevention of post-operative seroma. However, it is time-consuming and dependent on the suturing skill of the surgeon.
摘要:
腹腔镜或机器人腹股沟疝修补术后血清瘤形成是已知的并发症,给病人带来麻烦给外科医生带来尴尬.通过缝合将腹股沟直疝的松弛假囊固定在库珀韧带上的方法,为了防止术后血清肿的形成,在这项研究中进行了讨论。在56例患者中,使用不可吸收缝合线以“八字技术”进行了72个假囊固定。术后随访2周和6周。没有人出现血清肿。通过用不可吸收的缝合线缝合Cooper's韧带进行假囊的原发性闭塞是预防术后血清肿的廉价可靠方法。然而,这是耗时的并且依赖于外科医生的缝合技能。
