Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) repair for a recurrent inguinal hernia

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This interventional study examines whether the laparoscopic Transabdominal Preperitoneal repair can safely treat adults with recurrent inguinal hernias. Participants undergo the TAPP procedure and are monitored shortly after surgery with regular follow-ups to track long-term recovery and complications. The goal is to determine if using a different tissue layer provides a stronger, durable repair in the setting of scar tissue from prior operations. The study is conducted at Sohag University in the Faculty of Medicine, enrolling adults who are suitable for general anesthesia and provide informed consent. Outcomes focus on postoperative complications and recovery trajectories over time.
