Abstract:Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of single-site umbilical laparoscopy in the treatment for inguinal incarcerated hernia in children. Methods Retrospective reviews were conducted for the clinical data of the 105 children with inguinal incarcerated hernia during January 2010 to August 2014. According to different surgical approaches, data were divided into single-site laparoscopic surgery group (SLS, n=56) and open surgery group (OS,n=49). The follow-up period was 6-36 months. Results Two groups of patients were successfully completed surgery. The average operative duration was significantly longer in OS group (33.73±4.41)min than that of SLS group (26.14±5.17) min (P<0.01). The average operative blood loss was (3.18 ± 2.90) mL for OS group versus (1.73 ± 0.88) mL for SLS group (P<0.01). The hospitalization duration was (4.22±1.16) d for OS group versus (3.50±0.97) d for SLS group (P<0.01). The postoperative complications were 24.5%(12/49) for OS group and 8.9%(5/56) for SLS group. There was no recurrence of hernia in two groups. Conclusion Single-site umbilical laparoscopy is safe and efficacious for treatment of inguinal incarcerated hernia in children, which offers a new choice of treatment for occult inguinal hernia.
