One‐Trocar Laparoscopic Transperitoneal Closure of Inguinal Hernia in Children

Abstract

This easy technique provides the benefits of laparoscopic herniorrhaphy and combines the advantages derived from the novel use of a hook-pin and vascular access simplicity, low cost, safety, minimized tissue trauma, and improved cosmetics. In addition, only one umbilical trocar wound and another needle puncture point were made. Therefore, this procedure is recommended for pediatric inguinal hernia.
