Abstract Aims Robotic inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) is considered to improve surgical outcomes in patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery. The objective is to present a systematic review of RIHR compared to laparoscopic repair (LIHR). Methods A systematic review of comparative studies until January 2021 published on Embase, Medline, PubMed, PubMed Central and Cochrane databases reporting the surgical outcomes in patients undergoing RIHR versus LIHR was performed. Results A total of 12565 patients in 10 comparative studies were included. In the random effects model analysis using the statistical software Review Manager, statistically the RIHR prolonged the duration of operation (Standardized mean difference (SMD), 3.33; z = 5.84; P = 0.00001) but the length of stay (SMD, -0.8; z = 0.66; P = 0.51) and post-operative pain score (SMD, -0.47; z = 1.19; P = 0.24) were similar in both groups. In addition, the recurrence rate was similar in both groups (p = 0.92). The incidence of post-operative complications (OR 1.67; 95% CI, 1.14, 2.45; z = 2.64; P = 0.008) and chronic groin pain (OR 2.14; 95% CI, 0.97, 4.72; z = 1.88; P = 0.06) was higher in RIHR group. Conclusion RIHR is feasible and safe, but the duration of operation is significantly longer with equivocal other variables such as stay and pain score. There was higher incidence of post-operative morbidity and chronic groin pain as well. Major multi-center randomized controlled trial is mandatory to assess the long terms outcomes and cost effectiveness before the routine use of RIHR.

Summary Total extraperitoneal hernioplasty (TEP) has become increasingly used by surgeons. The TEP procedure is technically more challenging due to space constraints and has a higher learning curve. Chronic groin pain after inguinal hernia repair has become the dominant outcome investigated rather than recurrence. We aimed to evaluate the rate of chronic groin pain after TEP inguinal hernia repair performed at the Department of Surgical Oncology in G. Stranski University Hospital – Pleven. The procedures performed totaled 36. There was one conversion, and the patient was excluded from the study because the procedure performed was not laparoscopic. Distribution according to inguinal hernia type was: 41.7% - indirect hernia (15), 36.1% - direct hernia (13), 13.9% combined (5), and 8.3% femoral (3). Twenty-eight of the patients (80%) had preoperative pain. Two of the patients with chronic groin pain had had their meshes fixed with tacks (14.3% from the tack group with p=0.7). Our study showed that the TEP procedure is a safe, feasible operation with minimal risk for complications. Using tacks for mesh fixation is associated with higher rates of chronic groin pain, but it does not affect the recurrence rate, which correlates with the literature review data.

Background: Inguinal hernia is a common problem and its repair is one of the most commonly performed procedures in general surgical practice. Several methods have been developed including Lichtenstein’s repair. Among these Lichtenstein’s repair has been standard technique for last few decades. In recent time a new procedure “no mesh Desarda hernia repair” has emerged as a recognized operative method for inguinal hernia repair. Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the outcome of Desarda technique in repairing inguinal hernia. Methods: This was a single centered descriptive study to see the outcome of inguinal hernia repair by Desarda technique in both elective and emergency surgery carried out in the Dept. of Surgery, Sher-E-Bangla Medical College Hospital, Barisal from August, 2015 to July, 2016. Results: A total of 100 patients underwent Desarda repair for inguinal hernia including primary/recurrent and elective/ emergency cases. Variables includes age, type of surgery, operating time, post-operative complications, post-operative pain, post-operative hospital stay, cost of the procedure, chronic groin pain and any early recurrence. Mean age of patient was 48.9±9.07 years. Mean operating time was 43.72±9.64mins. Majority (54%) of the patient experienced mild post-operative pain on first day, measured in VAS score. Ten percent of patients developed different post-operative complications like wound infection (2%), seroma formation (1%) and scrotaledema (7%). Conclusion: In this study, it is revealed that no mesh Desarda repair for inguinal hernia was associated with less operating time, less post-operative pain, less post-operative complications, short hospital stay, zero recurrence rate, no chronic groin pain and performed in emergency cases also. So, it is safe and most reliable technique for all type of inguinal hernia surgery.

Background: Post-hernioplasty chronic groin pain is one of the most important complications encountered after inguinal hernia repair. Routine ilioinguinal nerve excision has been proposed to avoid chronic post-hernioplasty neuralgia. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of routine ilioinguinal nerve excision compared to nerve preservation on chronic groin pain and other sensory symptoms in lichtenstein inguinal hernia repair.Methods: The study was conducted in the department of general surgery, at S.P. Medical College and PBM Hospital, Bikaner for duration of 15 months from august 2018 to November 2019. A total of 60 patients of uncomplicated inguinal hernia, who met the inclusion criteria, planned for lichtenstein hernioplasty were randomly divided into 2 groups with 30 cases with ilioinguinal nerve preservation (group A) and 30 cases with elective division of the nerve (group B). Follow up was done upto1 year and patients were inquired regarding pain, hypoesthesia and numbness and data was compared and analysed.Results: The incidence of post-operative neuralgia was 23.33% vs 6.67% (p=0.05) at 1 year in group A and group B respectively. The difference in pain was significant in both groups. The incidence of post-operative hypoesthesia was 10% vs 16.67% (p>0.05) at 1 year follow up in group A and group B respectively. The incidence of numbness was 11.11% vs 16.67% (p>0.05) at 1 year in group A and group B respectively. No statistically significant difference was found in both groups.Conclusions: The prophylactic exicision of ilioinguinal nerve during lichtenstein mesh repair decreases the incidence of chronic groin pain after surgery.
