This study aimed to explore the impact of laparoscopic trans-abdominal preperitoneal hernia repair (TAPP) combined with a biological mesh on the reproductive function of male inguinal hernia patients during the reproductive period. The results showed that inguinal hernia had no significant effect on the volume and blood perfusion of the male testis. Additionally, TAPP combined with a biological mesh did not negatively affect the postoperative reproductive function of male inguinal hernia patients of childbearing age, indicating that it is a safe and feasible surgical method.
Objective. To explore the effect of laparoscopic trans-abdominal preperitoneal hernia repair (TAPP) combined with biological mesh on the reproductive function of male inguinal hernia patients during the reproductive period. Methods. Sixty male inguinal hernia patients during the reproductive period admitted to our department from October 2015 to October 2021 were selected for retrospective analysis. All patients were treated with TAPP combined with biological mesh by the same team. Bilateral testicular volume, testicular temperature, testicular blood perfusion, peripheral serum testosterone concentration, and semen analysis were examined before surgery, 3 months after surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 12 months after surgery. Results. The preoperative testicular volume, temperature, and blood perfusion were compared between the healthy side and the affected side; the testicular volume, temperature, blood perfusion of the affected side, peripheral blood testosterone concentration, and semen analysis were compared among the four time points, which were before operation, 3 months after operation, 6 months after operation, and 12 months after operation. All p values were >0.05. Conclusions. The presence of inguinal hernia had no significant effect on the volume and blood perfusion of male testis. In addition, TAPP combined with biological mesh has no negative effect on postoperative reproductive function of male inguinal hernia patients of childbearing age, which manifested as a safe and feasible surgical method.
