“…The patients recovered spontaneously with anti-edema and scrotal elevation. Essawy et al 12.5% [22] and Olasehinde et al [23] reported hematoma/seroma in 1.5% of cases in the study. Postoperative early complications are consistent with the literature.…”

“…In our study, recurrence was seen in 25 (2.4%) cases. When the articles published in the IHR using the Darn method are examined in the literature; Essawy et al [22] 0%, Olasehinde et al [23], 1.5%, Memon et al [24] 1.5%, Manzoor et al [25] 0.8%, Farooq et al [8] 0.6%, Kamran et al [26] reported a recurrence rate of 0%. Investigators, reported 0% recurrence, have published articles with short-term follow-up.…”

Aim: We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Modified Darn Repair (MDR) method performed in our clinic for Inguinal Hernia Repair (IHR) and to determine the postoperative complications and recurrence rates of this method. Material and methods: The records of all patients who underwent IHR with MDR method in our clinic between January 2012 and December 2021 were obtained from the hospital database. Demographic characteristics of the patients, intraoperative findings, hospitalization and return to normal activities, postoperative complications and recurrence rates were retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 892 patients aged between 18 and 85 with a male:female ratio of 14:1 were studied. Of 1011 elective IHRs, 773 were unilateral (right/left: 452/321) and 119 (119 right + 119 left) were bilateral.  Hernia types were 667 (66%) indirect, 273 (27%) direct, 71(7%) pantaloon (combined) hernias. All procedures were performed under spinal anesthesia. The mean duration of surgery was 35 (15-75) minutes, hospital stay was 1.1 (1-3) days, and return to normal activities was 12.8 (10-20) days. The postoperative complications were wound infection in 33 (3.26%) patients, hematoma in 11 (1.09%) patients, and abscess/seroma in 15 (1.48%) patients. In addition, suture material reaction developed in 1 (0,12%) patient. Recurrence was observed in 25 (2.4%) patients and no mortality was observed in any patient. Conclusion: The goal of every surgeon is to have a non-recurring repair in IHR without leaving a foreign body in the patient. Despite the criticism, we believe that the MDR technique is a safe, effective and viable option.
