V-030 LAPAROSCOPIC TAPP MCBURNEY'S INCISIONAL HERNIA REPAIR: A CASE REPORT

Abstract Background Lateral incisional hernia surgery represents an underappreciated challenge for general surgeons. McBurney's (L3) after appendectomy is rare, with incidence between 0.1 and 0.9%. Several studies have found fewer postoperative complications the laparoscopic approach compared open approach. Objective To show a video of transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) associated small right lateral inguinal hernia. Method We report case 52 years old man, previous in 2013, diagnosed (L3W2R0) (L1M0F0P). The patient was scheduled TAPP repair. Results operated as ambulatory no intraoperative complications. No recurrence nor other detected during short, 4th month, follow up surgery. Conclusions Minimal invasive repair mesh abdominal hernias cause less pain, short hospital stay, lower surgical site infection, possibly can reduce wider overlap defect possible. This technique has shown to be feasible reproducible selected cases.
