What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the effectiveness of Histoacryl® Lapfix - Cannula for laparoscopic mesh fixation in patients who underwent inguinal hernia repair. By analyzing electronic medical records of adult patients treated at Hospital San Juan de Dios between June 2018 and March 2021, the study will identify the incidence of hernia recurrence post-surgery. The findings will provide insights into the clinical performance of this specific fixation method in hernia repair procedures.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adult patients aged 18 and older who underwent laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with Histoacryl® Lapfix - Cannula during the specified time frame.
Not a fit: Patients who did not receive the Histoacryl® Lapfix - Cannula during their hernia repair surgery will not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved surgical techniques and reduced recurrence rates for inguinal hernias.
How similar studies have performed: While this study focuses on a specific application, similar approaches in laparoscopic hernia repair have shown promise in previous research.
