Open vs. laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty (TAPP) – nine years of our experience

Abdominal wall hernias are the most common surgical disease. Laparoscopic (endoscopic) approach is a trend of recent decades. However, the traditional open methods countinue to have their place. The aim of this work is a retrospective analysis of our results in inguinal hernioplasty in the last nine years since we first introduced laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair (TAPP) into the practice. We have compiled statistics of operations, complications, recurrence and compared the results of open methods and TAPP. Here are the basic principles of our perioperative management and a comparison with the current guidelines of world societies for hernia surgery.
