Abstract
Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgical procedures performed globally. Open Lichtenstein repair is the most often used method of repair worldwide. The use of laparoscopic surgery to treat inguinal hernias has raised technological demand throughout the last several decades. The primary method is the trans‐abdominal pre‐peritoneal (TAPP) procedure, which has the advantages of early recovery and minimal postoperative discomfort. Objective: The current work is a short‐term study comparing the intraoperative, postoperative complications length of hospital stay for unilateral non‐recurrent hernias between open Lichtenstein repair and laparoscopic trans‐abdominal preperitoneal repair of inguinal hernia (TAPP). A total of 120 male subjects with oblique inguinal hernias (unilateral non‐recurrent hernias) who were above the age of eighteen and in good general health were enrolled in this prospective, randomised study. They were divided into two groups as follows: Group A: Laparoscopic trans‐abdominal pre‐peritoneal repair (TAPP) was performed on 59 patients. Group B: Open Lichtenstein repair was performed on 61 patients. Less post‐operative discomfort was seen in this research on days 0, 1, 7 1 month after surgery. Six months after surgery, there was no discernible change. In the end, we determined that TAPP repair is less painful in the early postoperative phase and safer for inguinal hernias (unilateral non‐recurrent hernias). Along with a much longer operating period, it also has less difficulties.
