Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the effectiveness of a surgical glue, Ifabond™, as an alternative to traditional mesh fixation in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs, focusing on reducing chronic postoperative pain.
- Data was collected from 613 patients, showing significant decreases in postoperative pain and improvements in quality of life after surgery, with follow-ups at 5 weeks and 12 months.
- Although 13.74% of patients experienced chronic pain a year later, only a small number required medication, and overall complications, such as hernia recurrences and major morbidities, were low.
