Abstract
Many people have differing opinions on whether traditional open surgery or less invasive minimally invasive methods like Laparoscopic Hernia (LH) operation sought to be used in incisional hernia treatment. Using data from a tertiary care centre, this study compares the outcomes of open vs. laparoscopic hernia repair. We conducted a retrospective cohort research project using Database from a tertiary care centre. The participants were patients who had their hernia repairs in the recent years, either using open surgery techniques or LH repair procedure. Two sets of surgical methods were the open repair and LH repair operations. Diagnostic criteria for our research participants were demographic parameters, rates of recurrence and complications. To compare the two groups statistically, we used the statistical tests to look for differences. Among the participants were 70 individuals who had LH repair surgery, and people who had open surgery. We found that when compared to the open repair group, the LH group had lesser incidences of wound infection in comparison to the patients undergoing OH surgery. The two methods' rates for recurrence of patient admission for pain were similar. Further analysis includes those patients who had a LH repair were lower in fold to experience their wound being infected and more quickly to get back to playing their regular activities. After comparing LH incisional hernia repair to open surgery, we conclude that LH repair has its advantages. It is associated with lesser incidences of the occurrence of wound infection in comparison to open surgery. This result attests to the use of minimally invasive surgery to improve patient outcomes. It also provides further evidence that LH operations are indeed perfect for treating incisional hernias.
