| Background A hernia is a projection of an organ or part of an organ through a defect in the body wall. When compared to open procedures, laparoscopic ventral hernia repair has consistently demonstrated lower overall complication rates, shorter hospital stays, and faster return to work. Aim To compare the efficacy and safety between laparoscopic transabdominal retromuscular mesh (TARM) repair and laparoscopic (IPOM) repair in the treatment of patients with ventral hernia in Zagazig University Hospitals as a single center experience. Patients and methods This study is a prospective randomized clinical trial carried out upon 48 patients who were randomized by closed envelope method into two groups: Group (A): had undergone Laparoscopic TARM repair. Group (B): had undergone Laparoscopic IPOM repair. Results There was statistically significant variation between groups concerning cost which was significantly lower in laparoscopic TARM repair. Group B was lower regard intra operative complication rate but not significantly, but regard postoperative complication Group A significantly associated with Seroma and Group B significantly associated with Bulge. Complicated cases were significantly younger and wider regarding hernia width. Conclusion TARM repair technique was more time consuming but with less cost in comparison to the IPOM technique. TARM has the advantage of defect closure and avoiding mesh contact with abdominal viscera. | ||||
