About this study
This study aims to evaluate the desarda technique in management of complicated inguinal hernia.
Read the detailed description
Desarda technique is one of the best surgical methods suitable for emergency hernia surgery repair, but there is still limited consensus. The purpose of this study is to assess the Long-term outcome of the pure tissue Desarda technique for the treatment of emergency inguinal hernias repair (Incarcerated, Irreducible, and Obstructed Patients) regarding Postoperative Complications, Groin Pain, and recurrence rate.
Surgical techniques for emergency inguinal hernia surgery remain an important less documented area. Emergency inguinal hernia can have different presentations. Incarceration is characterized by the irreducibility of contents and strangulation by the compromise of the blood supply of the contents (e.g., bowel, omentum).
