Abstract

GODERICH LALAN, José Miguel  and  GODERICH LOPEZ, Danisela. Herniorrafía inguinal: Técnica por sobrecapas de Fascia Transversalis. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 1998, vol.37, n.1, pp. 41-46. ISSN 1561-2945.

A descriptive, prospective, observational, and longitudinal study was performed to evaluate the results obtained with the application of a technique for the repair of inguinal hernia (the author's original technique) by overlayers of fascia transversalis, in which the first layer is copped with the use of continuos suture from the projection of the pubic tubercle until the obliteration of the deep inguinal rign, creating a second layer when copping the aponeurotic arch of the transverse to the iliopubic eminence. After a follow-up longer than 10 years, it was proved that out of 1 475 patients, only 1,2 % presented with recurrences. Relapses were more frequent in males, in indirect hernias and in patients over 45 years of age. The greatest number of recurrences occurred between the first and the third year after the operation. It is recommended to introduce this new technique within the surgical practice and to comply with the indications for the procedure made by the author
