| description | Introduction. Surgical mesh procedures addressed to inguinal hernia leads to better results in term of
recurrence, but the problems of postoperative pain still remains, and mesh fixation is considered to be one of
the factors. Our objective is to determine the impact of cyanoacrylate glues for mesh fixation in clinical
results considering postoperative acute and chronic pain, complications and recurrence.
Material and methods. We performed a systematic review of literature, searching for "cyanoacrylates"
(MeSH Terms) AND "hernia" (MeSH Terms) AND "herniorrhaphy" (MeSH Terms) in order to find
papers that discuss the use of cyanoacrylate glues in mesh fixation for hernia repair.
Results. We found 27 articles: 17 randomized trials (RT), 8 case series, 1 review and 1 meta-analysis. The
authors of these papers come from only two regions: Europe and Asia.
4 surgical procedures were used in combinations with cyanoacrylate mesh fixation: Lichtenstein, plug and
patch technique, TAPP and TEP.
No studies showed the inferiority of glue over the other methods of fixation considering all four postoperative
outcomes (acute pain, complication, chronic pain and recurrence).
The synthetic glue fixation achieves better results in terms of acute and chronic pain for both open and
minimally-invasive surgical procedures for inguinal hernia repair.
Conclusions. Although synthetic glue mesh fixation for inguinal hernia is not widely used over the
world, it is a safe and effective way for mesh fixation both in open and minimally-invasive inguinal hernia
repair and significantly decreases postoperative acute and chronic pain. |
