ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Lightweight polypropylene mesh with lower content of polypropylene is added with some absorbable ingredients, and wil these ingredients cause adverse reactionsin vivo?OBJECTIVE:
To compare the effect of lightweight polypropylene mesh and standard polypropylene mesh on tension-freerepair ofinguinal hernia.METHODS:
Forty patients with inguinal hernia were randomly divided into two groups (n=20 per group)the patients were treated by lightweight polypropylene mesh as experimental group andthose treated by standard polypropylene mesh ascontrol group. At 2 daysafter surgery, white blood cel counts, neutrophils percentage and level of C-reactive protein were detected. Furthermore, pain scores as wel as discomfort incidence and complications were assessed and recorded at 2 days, 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery, respectively. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
There were no significant differences in postoperative complications between two groups. White blood cel counts and neutrophils percentage in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P< 0.05), butthelevel of C-reactive protein had no significant difference. Besides, pain scores had no significant differencebetween the two groups, but the postoperative discomfort incidence in the experimental group was significantly decreasedcompared with the control group (P< 0.05). In conclusion, lightweight polypropylene mesh can reduce postoperative inflammation and discomfort incidence.
