    Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is now a standard approach for congenital inguinal hernias, having evolved since its introduction in the 1990s.

    Three main techniques for laparoscopic repair include ligation without disconnection, disconnection with closure, and complete disconnection with resection.

  • 3

    This study evaluated laparoscopic disconnection of the hernial sac without peritoneal closure in children, focusing on recurrence rates and operative outcomes.

    Patients were divided into two groups based on the internal ring diameter, with different surgical approaches applied accordingly.

  • 5

    The study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic disconnection alone versus additional internal ring repair in children.
