Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • operative time

    operative time will be measured in minutes for each procedure.and comparing three groups ( dual approach , TAPP and Lichtenstein ) in operative time which determined as follow: * from the inflation of the abdomen till deflation and port closure * for Lichtenstein from skin incision to skin closure

    from the inflation of the abdomen till deflation and port closure ---for lichtenstein from skin incision to skin closure.

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • intraoperative injuries

    intra operative

  • intra operative bleeding

    intraoperative

  • post operative pain

    immediately post operative and 6 ,12, 24 hours and two weeks post operative

  • post operative wound complication

    2 weeks post operative ,3 ,6 and 12 months postoperative

  • post operative chronic pain

    follow up at 3 months , 6 months and one year for pain assessment by VAS

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

group A (dual approach lap hernioplasty)

EXPERIMENTAL

dual approach laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty by combination of TAPP (group B) and pneumo-dissection preperitoneal instead of sharp dissection

Procedure: dual approach laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty

group B (TAPP)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

trans-abdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty (TAPP) after induction of pneumoperitoneum through peritoneal approach peritoneal incision and preperitoneal dissection then mesh fixation done

Procedure: TAPP

group C (Lichtenstein hernioplasty)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

open inguinal hernioplasty (lichtenstein) repair through inguinal incision and dissection of the sac anteriorly , excision of the sac and then mesh fixation in the posterior wall of inguinal canal

Procedure: (lichtenstein) repair

Interventions

after pneumoperitoneum is done preperitoneal pneumo-dissection is done and then peritoneal incision done . dissection preperitoneally and sac dissection will be easy approached

group A (dual approach lap hernioplasty)
TAPPPROCEDURE

pneumoperitoneum is done and then through abdominal approach peritoneal dissection in done and sac reduction and then mesh fixation

group B (TAPP)

inguinal incision is done and inguinal canal approach anteriorly and then sac dissection and excision then mesh fixation to posterior wall and closure the incision in layers

group C (Lichtenstein hernioplasty)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult male patient (older than 18y).
