Risk factors of postoperative complications following TAPP
Abstract：ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors of postoperative complications following transabdominal preperitoneal prosthesis (TAPP).Methods 336 patients with inguinal hernia treated with TAPP in our hospital from December 2015 to December 2017 were enrolled.All the patients were followed up for 3 to 6 months after operation, and the incidence of postoperative complications such as infection and pain were observed during this period.The risk factors related to postoperative complications were analyzed.Results The incidence of postoperative complications in hernia patients with severe adhesion and high body mass index was significantly higher than that in hernia patients with mild adhesion and low body mass index (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence rates of postoperative complications among the patients with different ages, types of hernia, sizes of hernia sac, anesthesia and patch types (P＞0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that severe adhesions of hernia ring and body mass index＞24 kg/m2were the risk factors of postoperative complications following TAPP.Conclusion Severe adhesions of hernia ring, body mass index＞24 kg/m2and the diameter of hernia ring＞5 cm are the risk factors of postoperative complications following TAPP.
