Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Hernia was first discovered by Carothers in 1935.
- In
- The first surgical techniques for repair of the inguinal hernial orifice is reinforcement of the anterior wall of the inguinal canal and tightening of the external inguinal ring by Stromayr in 1559, Purmann in 1694 and Czerny in 1877.
- The second technique is reinforcement of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and the tightening of the internal inguinal ring, either externally was done by Lucas-Championnière in 1881, Bassini in 1889, Lotheissen in 1898, McVay in 1942, Shouldice in 1945, Lichtenstein in 1987 and Stoppa in 1989 or via an intraabdominal approach by laparotomy by Tait in 1891 or laparoscopically by Ger in 1990, Velez and Klein in 1990.
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1871, new use of carbolized catgut ligature was developed by Marcy to treat inguinal hernia.[1]
- In 1876, ligating and excising the indirect peritoneal sac through the external ring was developed by Czerny to treat inguinal hernia.[2]
- Twisted and suture-transfixed the peritoneal sac in the lateral muscles through the external ring was developed by Kocher to treat inguinal hernia.
- In 1886, reefed the peritoneal sac into a plug to block the internal ring was developed by MacEwen to treat inguinal hernia.[3]
- Opened the external oblique aponeurosis to expose the entire inguinal canal was developed by Lucas-Championniere to treat inguinal hernia.
- In 1935, tensionless technique was based on strengthening of the posterior wall of inguinal canal with prosthetic material by Lichtenstein to treat inguinal hernia.[4]
