Objective To retrospectively compare short-term outcomes and health economics of PHS versus UHS for inguinal hernia repair. Methods We included 105 patients suffering from reducible inguinal hernia hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Lanzhou University from September, 2007 and September, 2012. The referred hernia types involved direct and indirect hernia (unilateral and bilateral). Based on different repair materials, the patients were divided into two groups, PHS group (n=53) and UHS group (n=52). Outcome parameters for comparison included incidences of seroma and scrotum edema, hospital duration, costs, etc. Results There were no differences in age, sex, hernia type, incidences of seroma and scrotum edema after surgery, hospital duration and costs between the two groups. However, the patients in the PHS group spent less money than those in the UHS group regarding the costs of materials and hospitalization, with significant differences. Conclusion For inguinal hernia repair, PHS and UHS are alike in reducing short-term complications, but PHS can significantly reduce patients’ economic burden due to less costs.
目的 了解局部麻醉下腹股沟疝无张力修补术后患者排便变化的相关影响因素。 方法 采用自行设计的问卷调查表，对2010年5月－6月行无张力修补术的腹股沟疝患者术后排便情况及变化进行调查，并就相关影响因素采用logistic回归方法进行统计分析。 结果 腹股沟疝无张力修补术后患者进食量减少、活动量减少、饮食成分变化、担心排便引起复发是术后排便变化的影响因素。 结论 加强该病症术后健康宣传，指导患者正常进食、多活动，消除患者对腹股沟疝复发的焦虑，可促进其早期排便。Objective To research on the risk factors for change of defecation after inguinal hernia mesh-repairs under local anesthesia. Methods Self-made questionnaires were used to investigate the defecation change among patients having undergone inguinal hernia mesh-repairs from May to June 2010, and the correlated factors for change of defecation were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results Reduction of activity and food, changes of food ingredients, and worries about recurrence were risk factors for change of defecation. Conclusion In order to facilitate the recovery of the patients, nurses should promote patients’ knowledge on the surgery, guide them to eat as usual and do more exercises, and eliminate their anxiety on recurrence of the disease.
目的：探讨鼻内窥镜辅助利用口腔黏膜瓣复合鼻腔黏膜瓣修补鼻中隔穿孔的可行性。材料和方法:从2001～2006，采用鼻内窥镜辅助带蒂口腔前庭沟黏膜瓣复合鼻腔黏膜瓣修补巨大鼻中隔穿孔16例，其中10例使用带蒂口腔前庭沟黏膜瓣复合鼻中隔黏骨膜瓣，6例使用带蒂口腔前庭沟黏膜瓣复合带蒂下鼻甲黏骨膜瓣，术后随访5月～3年。结果：3例患者在鼻腔的后份边缘在内窥镜下可见明显穿孔，半年后复查，4例患者中隔残余穿孔，出院时11例患者感觉口腔黏膜瓣进入的鼻腔侧鼻阻明显增加，半年后这种感觉明显改善，所有患者术后头昏、头痛、鼻腔干燥的症状完全消失。结论：鼻内窥镜辅助利用口腔黏膜瓣复合鼻腔黏膜瓣修补鼻中隔穿孔的方法具有较大的临床应用价值。
Objective To discuss the surgical treatment and experience of mesh infection after prosthetic patch repair of inguinal hernia. Methods The clinical data of 67 cases of mesh infection after prosthetic patch repair who were treated in Chao-Yang Hospital from Jan. 2011 to Jun. 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Results All patients were treated with surgical operation successfully， including removing the infected mesh and surrounding tissues， primary suture， and a placement of wound drainage， without replacement of a new patch substitute. The hospital stay of the patients was 10-25days with an average of 16days. Of the 67 patients， 51 patients got primary healed and the other 16 patients healed delayed after local dressing change due to the superficial infection following stitch removal. Sixty-six patients were followed-up for 6-24 months （average of 20 months） after operation without recurrence and complication， including seroma， wound infection， intestinal fistula， and postoperative pain. Conclusions The treatment of mesh infection after inguinal hernia repair is very complicated， but the primary suture repair and a placement of wound drainage after removing infected mesh with complete debridement is a effective therapy for it.
Objective To explore the surgical techniques and the clinical effect of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal （TAPP） hernia repair for recurrent inguinal hernia. Methods Clinical data of 130 cases of recurrent inguinal hernia who underwent TAPP hernia repair from Mar. 2009 to Dec. 2012 in Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital of Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Results Operations were completed successfully in 129 cases and 1 case was converted to open surgery. The operation time was （54.5±16.1） min （30-100min） and the hospital stay was （4.5±2.1） d （2-11d）. The rates of postoperative pain， hydrocele， and urinary retention were 3.8% （5/130），11.5% （15/130）， and1.5% （2/130） respectively. There were no complications such as foreign body sensation，wound infection，and intestinal obstruction after operation. All cases were followed-up for 7-50 months 〔（24.3±11.3） months）〕 with no recurrence was observed. Conclusions Laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair for recurrent inguinal hernia has advantages of minimal invasion and few complications，who is safe and effective.
