Manejo da dor inguinal crônica pós-hernioplastia (inguinodinia)

Abstract: A dor inguinal crônica pós-herniorrafia é uma situação preocupante, pois aproximadamente 10% dos pacientes submetidos à hernioplastia inguinal apresenta os sintomas, que com frequência limita a capacidade física. A etiopatogênese está relacionada a uma periostite do púbis (dor somática) e mais frequentemente à lesão nervosa (dor neuropática). É importante distinguir clinicamente entre os dois tipos de dor, pois o tratamento pode ser diferente. O médico deve estabelecer uma rotina diagnóstica e de tratamento, s… Show more

“…Inguinodynia is defined as a painful and late syndrome of the pre-operated inguinal region, which is characterized by a sensation of pain or paraesthesia, and which can be irradiated to the genitals and thighs. 9 In recent years the international association for the study of pain (IASP) described chronic inguinodynia as pain in the groin reported by the patient no later than 3 months after repair of inguinal hernia, this temporality is currently the cut-off point for differentiating between patients with postoperative pain and chronic inguinal pain due to various causes. The self-assessment tools in inguinodynia are the visual analog scale for pain (VAS) and the Mcgill Pain Questionnaire (Table 1), which have demonstrated reliability, validity and consistency.…”

“…The third type ("dysejaculation or deaferentation"), is less frequent (0.04%), characterized by a painful burning sensation during ejaculation. 9 Due to the emergence of the three nerves involved in the inguinal region (T12-L1 nerve roots), it is difficult to identify the exact nerve involved in causing pain due to anatomical variation and the absence of one or more nerves, hence, the general consensus is to identify the three nerves during inguinal hernia repairs, to avoid iatrogenic injuries. Objective evaluation of pain and hypoesthesia by von Frey monofilament before and after surgery has been shown to provide extensive clinical information; In addition, both ultrasound and computed tomography favor the diagnosis of chronic inguinal pain by identifying possible origins and related factors.…”

“…Its etiology is multifactorial and may be caused by damage to one or more inguinal region nerves, resulting in a pain of the neuropathic type and/or, due to the inflammatory process related to the use of the mesh or to other factors, rendering a somatic pain 4 . Its prevalence is quite variable and it today constitutes one of the modern surgeon's great challenges, due to the negative impact on these patients' quality of life 5 . In this sense, the present study aimed to evaluate the incidence of chronic inguinal pain in patients submitted to inguinal hernioplasty with the Lichtenstein technique.…”
