“…In fact, injuries to the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve have also occurred, and are also a unique complication of the laparoscopic approach. In all, 1.6% of patients experienced neuralgias, which is similar in incidence to that seen following traditional anterior approaches [15].…”

Smaller individual series on the outcome of laparoscopic hernioplasty techniques have been reported. This study reports on the complications of 3,229 laparoscopic hernia repairs performed by the authors in 2,559 patients. The TAPP (transabdominal preperitoneal) technique was the most frequently performed: 1,944 (60%). The totally preperitoneal technique was performed 578 (18%) times. The IPOM (intraperitoneal onlay mesh) repair was performed 345 (11%) times. The plug-and-patch technique was used 286 (9%) times and simple closure of the hernia defect without mesh was used in 76 (2%) repairs. Overall, there were 336 (10%) complications: 17 (0.5%) major and 265 (8%) minor. There were 54 (1.6%) recurrences, with a mean follow-up of 22 months. The TAPP technique had 19 (1%) recurrences and 141 (7%) complications. There were four bowel obstructions in this subgroup from herniation of small bowel through the peritoneal closure and trocar sites. The totally preperitoneal technique had no recurrence and 60 (10%) complications. The IPOM group had 7 (2%) recurrences and 47 (14%) complications. The plug-and-patch technique had 26 (9%) recurrences and 24 (8%) complications. The simple closure of the internal ring had 2 (3%) recurrences and 10 (13%) complications. Laparoscopic hernioplasty is not without complications. Laparoscopic hernioplasty is not without complications. Training, experience, and attention to technique will prevent some of these complications.

“…However, in most cases both branches were present as either separate or fused nerves. As previously observed by Moosman and Oelrich (1977) the genital branches enter the inguinal canal in a very consistent manner, i.e. in almost all cases the point of entry is along the anterior surface of the obliquus internus at the level of the lateral third of the inguinal ligament.…”

Summary. The anatomical variations of the genital nerves were studied by dissection of the inguinal canal in 25 post mortem specimens. The aim of this work was to provide data allowing to prevent injury to these nerves in the course of surgical repair of inguinal hernia. The course of the genital branches of the iliohypogastric and ilioinguinal nerves was consistent with that described in classical anatomical texts in only 12/25 dissections. The genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve displayed the features reported in classical anatomical descriptions in 18/25 dissections. Les l~sions nerveuses au cours de la cure des hernies de l'aine: bases anatomiquesR~sum6. A partir de 25 dissections du canal inguinal, les auteurs 6tudient les variations anatomiques des nerfs g6nitaux dans le but de pr6venir leurs 16sions au cours des cures chirurgicales des hernies de l'aine. Pour les branches g6nitales des nerfs iliohypogastricus et ilio-inguinalis, la disposition modale n'a 6t6 retrouv6e que 12 fois sur 25 dissections. La branche g6nitale du nerf g6nito-femoralis a 6t6 retrouv6e conforme aux descriptions classiques 18 fois sur 25.

“…For example, in the study by Rab et al [55], the ilioinguinal nerve was incorporated in the genitofemoral nerve, lateral to the deep inguinal ring in 44% of cases. Moosman et al [45] report the same course in 35% of patients. Furthermore, these percentages account for the nerves individually, irrespective of the presence and course of the other nerves.…”

Purpose To provide uniform terminology and definition of post-herniorrhaphy groin chronic pain. To give guidelines to the scientific community concerning the prevention and the treatment of chronic groin and testicular pain. Methods A group of nine experts in hernia surgery was created in 2007. The group set up six clinical questions and continued to work on the answers, according to evidencebased literature. In 2008, an International Consensus Conference was held in Rome with the working group, with an audience of 200 participants, with a view to reaching a consensus for each question.
