Comparative Study of Efficacy of Stoppas Procedure Over Bilateral Lichtensteins Hernioplasty in Bilateral Inguinal Hernias

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

Surgical repair of inguinal hernias is a common procedure done in adults. However recurrence has been reported to occur in 15% of the cases and postoperative pain and disability are frequent. The strengthening of posterior inguinal wall is one of the major objectives in inguinal hernia repair. The Stoppas repair or Giant Prosthetic Reinforcement Of the Visceral Sac(GPRVS) is done by wrapping the lower part of parietal peritoneum with prosthetic mesh over Fruchauds myopectineal orifice. The mesh contributes to a physiological healing process that creates a special anatomical strengthening in the inguinal region that prevents recurrence. The purpose is to study the efficacy of stoppas repair in bilateral inguinal hernias in the department of general surgery in CMCH and to study its advantages and disadvantages.
