description | The majority of inguinal hernia repairs today, open or laparoscopic, are performed with mesh tension-free repair. The introduction of mesh, though beneficial, posed a new set of post-operative problems related with the mesh, and mesh migration or penetration is one of the most unusual ones with considerable morbidity. Mesh migration following laparoscopic repair is rare, and only a handful of cases have been reported in the literature. Here we present the first ever case report of mesh migration and penetration through rectum developing after two years post-operatively. The mesh was removed and the patient was discharged in a stable condition. |
