Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair for Female Patients : Experience from a High-volume Center in 20 years
Copyright © 2023 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved..
BACKGROUND: Although laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) is widely performed worldwide, few studies have focused on the procedure in female patients. This study investigated the characteristics and outcomes of female patients with inguinal hernias who underwent LIHR.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed the data of 7380 patients with inguinal hernia admitted to the General Surgery Department of Ruijin Hospital and underwent LIHR from January 2001 to December 2020. The clinical characteristics, surgical outcomes, and complications were assessed.
RESULTS: In total, 572 female patients were enrolled in this study. The proportion of femoral hernias in female patients was higher in women than in male patients (17.4% vs. 0.3%, respectively). Mesothelial cysts of the round uterine ligament (MCURL) were noted in 74 patients. The mean age of patients with MCURL was lower than that of patients without MCURL (46.4 vs. 55.6, P =0.018). Seventy cases (93.3%) of MCURL were resected laparoscopically, and 5 cases were resected through an auxiliary small incision. The round ligament was cut off in 335 patients and preserved in 237. No significant differences were observed in the number of hospitalization days, recurrence rates, or complications between the transection and preservation groups. None of the cases were converted to laparotomy, and no recurrence was noted during follow-up.
CONCLUSION: LIHR is safe and feasible in female patients. Treatment of femoral hernia, MCURL, and the round ligament of the uterus should be carefully considered during LIHR in female patients.
