Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) is superior than the open repair in terms of less post opertaive pain , less blood loss, lowwound complications and shorter hospital stay. This study was conducted to assess results of laparoscopic ventral hernia repair using mesh insertion. Material and methods: The study was conducted to assess results of laparoscopic ventral hernia repair using mesh insertion in which LVHR technique was used as closure the defect. The patients were followed up at 1 week, 3 weeks, 3 months. Results: In the present study, 40 patients were operated by this technique. Mean operating time for was 72 mins. Lower abdomen hernia was the most common. Mean length of hernia defect was 9.2cm. In maximum patients main complaint was bulge and pain.Post operativepain was present in 40 patients on trocar site after postoperative 3rd day and in 5 patients after 1st week. Pain was present in 40 patients at suture site after postoperative 3rd day, in 9 patients after 1st week, in 8 patients after 3 week and in 1 patient after 3 months. Seroma was not occurred. Conclusion: The present study concluded that laparoscopic ventral hernia repair using mesh is an effective and safe procedure with very low postoperative pain. |
