Abstract

Introduction: An inguinal hernia is a protrusion of abdominal cavity contents or pre-peritoneal fat through a hernial defect in the inguinal region. Desarda's technique is an aponeuroplasty, based on closure of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal by a flap of the external oblique fascia. This technique has the advantage over prosthetic cures in that it is a tension-free cure and does not require an implant. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of curing inguinal hernias using the Desarda technique, and to evaluate the initial results in our practice. Material And Method: This is a prospective study over a 2-year period (January 2017 - December 2018), covering 100 cases of uncomplicated inguinal hernia cure in 98 patients operated on by aponeurotic plasty (Desarda technique), in the general surgery department of Ignace DEEN Hospital. Selection criteria were: informed consent, age over 15 years, uncomplicated primary inguinal hernias, normal prostate ultrasound and PSA results for adult males over 50 years of age. Results: The study included 100 cases of uncomplicated inguinal hernia repair in 94 patients operated on by aponeurotic plasty (Desarda technique). The patients were 88 men (94%) and 6 women (6%), with a mean age of 44.7 years and extremes of 19 and 78 years. The majority of patients (37 or 39.36%) were blue-collar workers. The hernia was unilateral in 88 patients and bilateral in 6. One woman had a bilateral hernia. The hernia was located only on the right in 72 cases and only on the left in 20. According to the Nyhus classification, type IIIb 45% was the most frequent. The patients were operated on under spinal anesthesia in 68 cases. On the first postoperative day, nine patients (9.57%) were assessed as having moderate pain. Beyond the third month, pain assessment revealed five cases of chronic pain. Surgical site infection was the most frequent complication. With an average follow-up of 17 months, no cases of recurrence were noted.
