About this study

Official title: Trans Inguinal Periperitoneal Technique in Inguinal Hernioplasty at General Surgery Department in Assiut University Hospitals

evaluation of feasibility and efficacy of trans inguinal periperitoneal technique by using conventional mesh inguinal hernia repair in general surgery department in Assiut university hospitals

Read the detailed description

Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide with approximately 20 million cases every year . The open Lichtenstein tension-free hernioplasty is most commonly performed and recognized for its low recurrence rate and short learning curve, but associated with an undesirably high level of postoperative chronic groin pain, up to 10-35% . Therefore, chronic groin pain is a common concern after inguinal hernia surgery. Treatment of chronic groin pain can be challenging and may require several interventions including, local anaesthesia , corticosteroids or additional surgery . Several studies showed that chronic groin pain might be dependent on the surgical technique, including identification and handling of inguinal nerves ,Preperitoneal techniques like the transinguinal preperitoneal patch (TIPP )have been developed to minimize these risks. The TIPP technique which introduced by prissier involves a standard anterior inguinal approach, with high dissection and preperitoneal reduction use of a PolySoft mesh have been proved to cause less chronic pain than the Lichtenstein technique. The PolySoft mesh is a lightweight polypropylene mesh, tailored in asymmetric oval shape that contains a recoil ring. Recent studies deficient in evaluation feasibility and efficacy of trans inguinal periperitoneal technique by using conventional mesh in inguinal hernia repair . So the aim of our study to evaluate the use of conventional mesh in transinguinal preperitoneal technique in inguinal hernioplasty .

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • hernioplastyProcedure or surgery

    The polysome repair was carried out as described by pelisse . In the case of a lateral hernia, the spermatic cord was mobilised and the cremasteric fibers were separated (in men). The hernia sac was dissected from the cord structures and reduced in the preperitoneal space through the internal ring. A dissection gauze was inserted through the internal ring to create the preperitoneal space. The medial border of the internal ring and the epigastric vessels were lifted with a refractor and blunt digital dissection was carried out in the preperitoneal space in all directions. A pocket was created to allow a complete expansion of the mesh. The conventional mesh was introduced with blunt forceps and, after the gauze has been removed, positioned in the preperitoneal space .

    In the case of a medial hernia, the preperitoneal space was reached by incising the transversalis fascia around the base of the sac. Completion of the repair is the same as the lateral hernia procedure.

What is being measured

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hernia, Inguinal, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact ahmed elsayed (01021892279, elsayedahmed994@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence rate of inguinal hernia 2 years follow up . (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06270472, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
