Abstract

Purpose

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair in patients who have undergone robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).

Methods

From July 2014 to December 2016, TAPP inguinal hernia repair was conducted in 40 consecutive patients who had previously undergone RALP. Their data were retrospectively analyzed as an uncontrolled case series.

Results

The mean operation time in patients who had previously undergone RALP was 99.5 ± 38.0 min. The intraoperative blood loss volume was small, and the duration of hospitalization was 2.0 ± 0.5 days. No intraoperative complications or major postoperative complications occurred. During the average 11.2-month follow-up period, no patients who had previously undergone prostatectomy developed recurrence.

Conclusions

Laparoscopic TAPP inguinal hernia repair after RALP was safe and effective. TAPP inguinal hernia repair may be a valuable alternative to open hernioplasty.
