ABSTRACT
Introducción: la hernia inguinal es uno de los principales motivos de consulta quirúrgica y su reparación es uno de los procedimientos más comunes en cirugía. Objetivo: determinar la experiencia en el abordaje laparoscópico de las hernias inguinales por técnica transabdominal preperitoneal en el Servicio de Cirugía General del Centro Médico Nacional-Hospital Nacional. Metodología: estudio observacional descriptivo retrospectivo de corte temporal transversal. En pacientes de 16 a 90 años de edad con diagnóstico de hernia inguinal internados en el Servicio de Cirugía General del Centro Médico Nacional-Hospital Nacional para hernioplastia electiva. Resultados: se llevaron a cabo 30 hernioplastias por técnica técnica trans-abdominal pre-peritoneal de los cuales el 73 % fue realizado en hombres y 27 % en mujeres; se identificó una media de edad de 48,4 años, el grupo etario con mayor frecuencia fue de 38 a 48 años. En el examen físico pre quirúrgico se encontraron hernias inguinales unilaterales en el 76.6 % y bilaterales en el 23.3 %; en la mayor parte de los pacientes las hernias fueron primarias en el 86.6 %y recidivada en el 13.3 %. El tiempo quirúrgico en promedio fue de 93.1 minutos; con un tiempo máximo de 120 minutos y mínimo de 60 minutos. El tiempo de hospitalización en el 100 % de los pacientes fue de 48 h. De las complicaciones post operatorias se establece que el 76.6 % no presento ningún tipo de complicación; el 20 % presentó seroma como complicación principal y 3.3 % infección del sitio quirúrgico. Conclusión: debido a su alta frecuencia y a su impacto en la incapacidad laboral y social, las hernias inguinales representan una de las patologías quirúrgicas más importantes con bajas tasas de complicaciones post operatorias y corta estancia hospitalaria.
Introduction: inguinal hernia is one of the main reasons TAPP, e-TEP (Totally extraperitoneal with extended vision) for surgical consultation and its repair is one of the most common surgical procedures. Objective: to determine the experience in the laparoscopic approach of inguinal hernias by preperitoneal transabdominal technique in the Servicio de Cirugía General of the Centro Médico Nacional-Hospital Nacional. Methodology: retrospective descriptive observational study of cross-sectional time. In patients from 16 to 90 years of age with a diagnosis of inguinal hernia admitted to the Servicio de Cirugía General of the Centro Médico Nacional-Hospital Nacional for elective hernioplasty. Results: 30 hernioplasties were carried out by the TAPP technique, of which 73 % were performed in men and 27 % in women; a mean age of 48.4 years was identified, the age group most frequently being 38 to 48 years. In the pre-surgical physical examination, unilateral inguinal hernias were found in 76.6 % and bilateral in 23.3 %; in most of the patients the hernias were primary in 86.6 % and recurred in 13.3 %. Average surgical time was 93.1 minutes; with a maximum time of 120 minutes and a minimum of 60 minutes. The hospitalization time in 100 % of the patients was 48 hours. Of the post-operative complications, it is established that 76.6% did not present any type of complication; 20 % presented seroma as the main complication and 3.3 % surgical site infection. Conclusion: due to its high frequency and its impact on work and social disability, inguinal hernias represent one of the most important surgical pathologies with low rates of postoperative complications and short hospital stay.
ABSTRACT
Background: A ventral hernia is a hernia which can be occur at any location along the midline (vertical center) of the abdomen wall. It can be classified as spontaneous (primary) or acquired (secondary). Also, there are basically 3 types of ventral hernia and these are: Epigastric or stomach area hernia, Umbilical or belly button hernia and the Incisional hernia.Material & Methods:This was a prospective observational comparative study. The total sample size for this study 38 and among these 18 cases were from e-TEP and 20 cases were from IPOM. The study period was from December 2019- December 2021. The stratified sampling method was followed for this study as an eligibility criterion for age of the respondents was set for this study.Results:The presence of co-morbidities was found in both e-TEP and IPOM. High blood pressure was seen in 7(38.89%) cases in e-TEP and 8(40%) cases in IPOM and followed by stroke in 4(22.22%) and 5(25%), Hypothyroidism in 1(5.56%) and 1(5%), Cancer in 2(11.11%) and 2(10%), Diabetes in 4(22.225) and 4(20%). Location of Hernia in right 7(38.89%) and 8(40%) and in left side was 11(61.11%) and 12(60%). In assessing the condition of disease, it was found that ventral hernia was in 4(22.22%) and 5(25%), Umbilical hernia in 6(33.33%) and 6(30%), Epigastric hernia 8(44.44%) and 9(45%). The Mean and SD of Defect size of lesion 71.4�.1 and 76�.2.Conclusions:The above study showed that the e-TEP repair had shown promising results and was being widely accepted. It results less presence of co-morbidities and less complications when compared to IPOM repair.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Introduction: currently, there are several clinical applications for robot-assisted surgery and in the hernia scenario, robot-assisted surgery seems to have the ability to overcome laparoscopic ventral hernias repairs limitations, facilitating dissection, defect closure, and mesh positioning. Exponentially grown in numbers of robotic approaches have been seen and even more complex and initially not suitable cases have recently become eligible for it. An appropriate tension-free reestablishment of the linea alba is still a major concern in hernia surgery and even with the robotic platform, dissecting and suturing in anterior abdominal wall may be challenging. This article reports a technical image artifice during a da vinci Xi-platform robotic ventral hernia repair allowing the surgeon to establish a more familiar and ergonomic manner to perform dissection and suturing in anterior abdominal wall. Technical Report: a step by step guided technique of image inversion artifice is described using detailed commands and figures to assure optimal surgical field and ergonomics whenever acting in robotic ventral hernias repair with the da Vinci Xi-platform. Our group brief experience is also reported, showing an easy and reproducible feature among surgeons with safe outcomes. Conclusion: we consider that image inversion artifice is a simple and reproducible feature in robotic ventral hernia repair. Through a step-by-step guide, this report enables the creation of an artifice providing a comfortable operative field and allowing the surgeon to achieve its best proficiency in hernia surgery.
RESUMO Introdução: as qualidades da cirurgia robótica em diversos campos da cirurgia minimamente invasiva são notórias e, no cenário de hérnias abdominais, ela tem se mostrado capaz de superar as limitações da laparoscopia facilitando a dissecção, o fechamento do defeito herniário e o posicionamento da tela. O número de abordagens robóticas cresceu exponencialmente e casos ainda mais complexos e inicialmente inadequados tornaram-se recentemente elegíveis para uma cirurgia menos invasiva. A reconstrução adequada da linha alba e livre de tensão ainda é uma grande preocupação na cirurgia de hérnia e, mesmo com a plataforma robótica, dissecar e suturar na parede abdominal anterior pode ser um desafio. Este artigo relata um artifício técnico com inversão de imagem durante a correção de hérnia ventral robótica com a plataforma Da vinci Xi, permitindo ao cirurgião estabelecer uma maneira mais familiar e ergonômica de realizar dissecção e sutura na parede abdominal anterior. Nota Técnica: uma técnica guiada passo a passo com artifício de inversão de imagem é descrita usando comandos e figuras detalhadas para garantir campo cirúrgico ideal e melhor ergonomia ao cirurgião sempre que atuar na correção de hérnias ventrais robóticas com a plataforma Da vinci Xi. Nossa breve experiência de grupo também é relatada, mostrando-se uma técnica fácil e reprodutível entre cirurgiões com resultados seguros. Conclusão: consideramos que o artifício de inversão de imagens é uma característica simples e reprodutível na correção de hérnia ventral robótica. Por meio de um guia passo a passo, este artigo detalha a criação de um artifício técnico que proporciona um campo operatório confortável ao cirurgião atingindo sua melhor proficiência em cirurgia de hérnia.
