Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The safety and efficacy of pre-peritoneal drain after TEP has been validated in our previous studies - which can effectively reduce seroma formation post-operatively and safe in clinical use. We shall extend the indication of pre-peritoneal drainage after robotic TAPP, results will be compared with our retrospective cohort from previous studies.

Detailed Description

The safety and efficacy of pre-peritoneal drain after TEP has been validated in our previous studies - which can effectively reduce seroma formation post-operatively and safe in clinical use. We shall extend the indication of pre-peritoneal drainage after robotic TAPP, results will be compared with our retrospective cohort from previous studies.

Criteria of enrolling into trial is same as our previous experiment: aged 18-80, unilateral, first occurrence, reducible, non-inguino-scrotal inguinal hernia fit for GA for minimally invasive hernia repair. Routine robotic TAPP performed in standardized manner and pre-peritoneal drains are placed for drainage of 23 hours post-operatively. Drain output, pain scores, status of seroma formation (clinical, USG detected), post-operative recovery and recurrence will be monitored and compared.
