Abstract：Objective To observe the short-term outcomes of laparoscopic transperitoneal tension-free hernioplasty and traditional hernioplasty in the treatment of inguinal hernia.Methods A total of 100 patients with inguinal hernia admitted to Qionghai People's Hospital,Qionghai People's Hospital from January 2015 to January 2016 were assigned to have laparoscopic tension-free hernia repair(laparoscopic group,50 cases) and open tension-free hernia repair(open group,50 cases).Operation time,intraoperative blood loss,ambulation time,gastrointestinal function recovery time,postoperative hospitalization time,hospitalization expense,pain scores 24 h and 1 week after operation,complications and recurrence were analyzed.Results Operation time in the laparoscopic group was longer,intraoperative blood loss was less [(19 ± 6)ml vs (20 ± 10)ml],ambulation time,gastrointestinal function recovery time and postoperative hospitalization time were shorter[(25 ± 12)h vs (50 ± 18)h,(1.5 ± 0.5) d vs (2.1 ± 0.5) d,(3.8 ± 0.6) d vs (6.1 ± 1.2) d],and hospitalization expense was higher than those in the open group(all P ＜ 0.05).Incidence of complications in the laparoscopic group was lower than that in the open group[16.0％ (8/50) vs 24.0％ (12/50)] (P ＜ 0.05).Pain scores 24 hours and 1 week after operation in the laparoscopic group were lower than those in the open group (both P ＜ 0.001).No recurrence occurred in 6 months after operation.Conclusion Laparoscopic transperitoneal tension-free hemioplasty is more effective and safe than traditional operation in treating inguinal hernia.
