A minor modification of Lichtenstein repair of primary inguinal hernia: postoperative discomfort evaluation.

2010

The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of a modification of the Lichtenstein hernioplasty procedure by evaluating its impact on postoperative discomfort. From December 1999 to May 2006, the Lichtenstein inguinal hernioplasty was performed in 406 patients with noncomplicated unilateral inguinal hernia. During reconstruction, the mesh was fixed to the inguinal canal floor without stitching its upper margin to the internal oblique muscle. Control of postoperative pain proved to be satisfactory; 72 hours after surgery, 26.1 per cent of patients no longer felt any pain, whereas 54.4 per cent had slight pain without the need for painkillers; on Day 7, 92.8 per cent felt no pain at …

Investigation of the skin lesions in lightning strike death

2021

Lightning strike-related deaths are unusual, and the victim bodies can present different lesions due to the different injury mechanisms associated with this event. Since the post mortem assessment can be challenging, the evaluation of the characteristics of the skin lesions becomes fundamental to reconstruct the event. Due to the paucity of literature on this topic, the authors report the case of a 59-year-old man found dead near his home after a thunderstorm. Initially considered a murder by gunshot, the autopsy revealed the typical lightning strike lesions, also known as Lichtenberg figures. The adequate interpretation of the autopsy data and the histological evidences allowed to reconstr…

HUMAN FIBRIN GLUE SEALING VERSUS SUTURE POLYPROPYLENE FIXATION IN LICHTENSTEIN INGUINAL HERNIORRAPHY: A PROSPECTIVE OBSERVATIONAL STUDY.

2014

Background: Patients who underwent primary inguinal hernia repair still report a high rate of postoperative pain after operation due to effect of mesh fixation by suture. An alternative is the use of human fibrin glue. We compared the two techniques. Methods: 468 patients randomly underwent primary inguinal hernia Lichtenstein repair fixing the mesh by suture or by human fibrin glue (HFG); in both cases themesh was fixed to the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and to the inguinal legament. results: No significant differences were recorded between the two groups in terms of complications, while the sutureless technique reduces the operative time and the postoperative pain. Conclusions: A…
