    This study shows that preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair is a safe and effective procedure when performed during open prostatectomy. This combined approach reduces surgical time and patient procedures with a low recurrence rate.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Oncology
    • Urology
    • General Surgery

    Background:

    • Inguinal hernias are a common complication.
    • Open prostatectomy is a standard surgical procedure.
    • Simultaneous repair of inguinal hernias during prostatectomy is desirable.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the surgical technique for preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair during open prostatectomy.
    • To report the outcomes of this combined procedure.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective review of patients undergoing open prostatectomy with concurrent preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair.
    • Description of the surgical technique through the same incision.

    Main Results:

    • The preperitoneal approach is easily integrated into open prostatectomy.

  • The procedure adds minimal operating time.
  • Only 3 recurrences were observed in 38 repaired hernias.

    • Conclusions:

    • Preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair during open prostatectomy is a feasible and effective technique.
    • This approach offers benefits by avoiding new surgical spaces and additional procedures.
    • Good outcomes with a low recurrence rate support its use.
