[Modern methods of treatment of inguinal hernias].
Surgical methods of treatment have been analyzed with special reference to wide introduction of new technologies. Altogether there were 4424 operations for inguinal hernias. Traditional plasty of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal with autotissues was used in 2136 patients. Lichtenstein operations were fulfilled on 521 patients, laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty--on 1614, complete preperitoneal hernioplasty--on 153 patients. The analysis made has shown that an introduction of modern surgical technologies into clinical practice allowed reduction of the percentage of complications and recurrences. The share of operations by the "tension-free," method was as high as 52%.
