description | We aim to present the operative findings of inguinal and femoral hernias that were operated.The records of 732 patients who underwent surgery for inguinal and femoral hernia between March 2000 and January 2013 were evaluated retrospectively. The number, sex, and age of patients, type and side of hernias, the existence of strangulation, structure, and content of hernia sac were recorded.684 (93.4 %) of patient is male, 48 (6.5 %) of patient is female. The average age was 46.2. The rate of inguinal hernia was 96.7 %. However, the rate of femoral hernia was 3.2 %. Inguinal hernia 97.9 % and femoral hernia 2 % was found among males. Inguinal hernia 79.1 % and femoral hernia 20 % was found among females. Indirect hernia rates were 70.4 % among males and 75 % among females. Direct hernia rates were 20.7 % among males and 4.1 % among females. Hernias were located in 59 % on right-side, in 37 % on left-side, in 3.1 % on bilateral. The strangulated hernia was seen at 3.1 % in all cases. Strangulation rate was higher among women (6.2 % - 2.9 %). The strangulation rate was 16.6 % in femoral hernia, but this ratio was 2.6 % in inguinal hernia. Hernia sac consisted of peritoneum frequently (99.4 %). The structure that was found mostly in hernia sac was omentum majus (40.4 %).Inguinal hernias are encountered more than femoral hernias. The strangulation rate in femoral hernias is higher than in inguinal hernias. Since the strangulation rate is higher in femoral hernias, the surgical urgency of this type of hernias is higher than inguinal hernias. At the same time, because the internal organs can form the hernia sac or the organ inside the sac, the surgeon should pay maximum attention during the operation. [Med-Science 2020; 9(1.000): 86-9] |
