Aim To investigate the effectiveness of pre-emptive preperitoneal infiltration of 0.5%
Bupivacaine in postoperative pain control in laparoscopic total extraperitoneal (TEP) …

Background Laparoscopic preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair is associated with a short
hospital stay and an early return to normal activity. Therefore, early postoperative pain …

Background: The limited space developed in totally extraperitoneal laparoscopic inguinal
hernia repair (TEP) provides the ideal setting for direct instillation of local anesthetic. This …

Purpose Laparoscopic total extra-peritoneal hernia repair (TEP) is associated with less post-
operative pain and earlier return to normal activity compared to open hernia repair (OHP) …

BACKGROUND: Totally extraperitoneal (TEP) laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty procedure
is significantly less painful than open repair, but it is not completely painless. The aim of this …

Background Laparoscopic total extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernioplasty is significantly
less painful than open repair, but it is not completely painless. Local anesthetics are thought …

Background A prospective randomized trial was performed to determine whether local
anaesthetic solutions injected into the preperitoneal space may provide additional pain relief …

The efficacy of bupivacaine instillation into preperitoneal space following laparoscopic
herniorrhaphy for postoperative pain reduction is still in controversy. A randomized …

Background Irritation of inguinal nerves with laparoscopic hernia repair may cause chronic
neuralgia and hypoesthesia. Hypoesthesia in particular is generally not assessed …

Background: The potential analgesic benefit of infiltration of the wounds and extraperitoneal
space with local anesthetic in patients undergoing laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) …
