Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a laparoscopic surgery called Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) repair is safe and works well for adults with a recurrent inguinal hernia (a groin hernia that has returned after a previous operation).

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does the TAPP technique lower the number of complications after surgery? How well do participants recover during the early postoperative period and long-term follow-up? Fixing a hernia that has returned is hard because of old scar tissue. In this study, researchers will use the TAPP technique to work through a different layer of tissue to provide a stronger repair.

Participants will:

Undergo the TAPP laparoscopic surgery for their recurrent hernia. Visit the clinic for close health monitoring shortly after surgery. Complete regular follow-up checkups to track their long-term recovery.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patients. Patients diagnosed with recurrent inguinal hernia. Patients fit for general anesthesia. Patients who provide informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Non recurrent inguinal hernia Patients with complicated inguinal hernia. Patients unfit for general anesthesia. Patients refusing participation in the study.
