MANAGEMENTUL CURATIV CELIOSCOPIC ÎN DEFECTELE PARIETALE INGHINALE - OBIECTIVE, PRINCIPII, TEHNICĂ, COMPLICAŢII.

Primary or incisional parietal defects are benign lesions, but their disposition to complications and recurrences always need surgical treatment. On the 2nd place, after apendicectomy and representing between 10% and 15% from a general surgery department activity, the number of these defects is increasing proportionally to the medium life expectancy, technological progress and high addressability of the specialized medical services. Laparoscopic management of the inguinal hernias goes to the same principles of the classical techniques, but the minimal invasively approach, lower costs, short hospitalization and overall recovery of the patient, lead to the extension and improvement of these laparoscopic procedures. From the simple procedures, such as the "plug and patch" technique to the now-a-days extended and complex ones the improvement of these methods has been made along three decades, and now it is unanimously accepted that the laparoscopic treatment of these defects is higher than ever. The present article, based on a review of specialized literature, aims at establisging the optimal approach, the feasibility of these procedures, the technique and last, but not least, the immediate and remote complications that may occur when the laparoscopic surgery is the treatment of choice in inguinal hernias.
