Summary

The Percutaneous Internal Ring Suturing (PIRS) is a novel laparoscopic technique for canine inguinal hernia repair. This minimally invasive approach demonstrated no recurrence and rapid recovery in clinical patients.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Techniques
  • Canine Health

Background:

  • No prior studies document laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in dogs.
  • Introduces the Percutaneous Internal Ring Suturing (PIRS) as the first minimally invasive laparoscopic technique for canine inguinal canal closure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Evaluate the clinical applicability and technical utility of the laparoscopic PIRS technique for canine inguinal hernia treatment.
  • Describe the procedure and outcomes of laparoscopic PIRS for 11 inguinal hernias in nine dogs.

Main Methods:

  • Laparoscopic PIRS performed under camera guidance via an umbilical trocar.
  • Inguinal canal closure achieved by suturing through a small puncture using an injection needle.
  • Pre-operative, immediate post-operative, and three-month post-operative clinical and ultrasound examinations.

Main Results:

  • No instances of hernia recurrence were observed during the study period.
  • All treated dogs regained full mobility shortly after anesthesia recovery.

Conclusions:

  • The PIRS technique is a minimally invasive and simple method for treating non-traumatic inguinal hernias in dogs.
  • Further research is needed to explore PIRS applicability for other types of canine inguinal hernias.
