[A new method for plastic repair of the inguinal canal in treating inguinal hernias]. / Novyi sposob plastiki pakhovogo kanala pri lechenii pakhovykh gryzh.

An analysis of the 20-years experience with treatment of inguinal hernias is presented. Patients with "light" forms of inguinal hernias and with a good condition of the posterior wall, inconsiderable widening of the deep opening of the inguinal canal can be successfully treated by Martynov's and Girard's methods. In complicated forms of the inguinal hernia it is necessary to strengthen the posterior wall of the inguinal canal, in cases with big recurrent and repeatedly recurring hernias it must be completely reconstructed, often with the help of alloplasty. A method of alloplasty of the inguinal canal is proposed for complicated forms of inguinal hernias. Operations were made on 62 patients, recurrent hernias were noted in 2 patients (3.4%). Another method of operations is proposed used in men of young and middle age excluding traumas of elements of the spermatic cord. Operations were performed on 111 patients, recurrences were noted in 2 of them (2%).
