Objective  To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopic high ligation of hernia sac with constructed veress needle in the treatment of indirect inguinal hernia in children. Methods  Ninety-one cases of pediatric indirect inguinal hernia who received treatment in Suqian People’s Hospital of Nanjing Drum-Tower Hospital Group from October 2014 to December 2015 were selected and randomly divided into two groups, cases of laparoscopy group (n=41) were treated by laparoscopic high ligation of hernia sac with constructed veress needle, and cases of tradition group (n=50) were treated with traditional open high ligation of hernia sac. Comparison of clinical effect between the 2 groups was performed. Results  All the operations were successfully carried out, and there was no conversion to open surgery in laparoscopy group. Three cases were diagnosed as two-side inguinal hernia in laparoscopy group, who were diagnosed as one-side inguinal hernia before operation. The operation time, length of surgical incision, blood loss, and hospital stay of the laparoscopy group were all significantly less than those of the tradition group (P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications such as scrotal edema and scrotal hydrocele, incidence of testicular dysplasia, and the recurrence rate in the laparoscopy group were all significantly lower than those of the tradition group (P<0.05). Conclusions  Laparoscopic high ligation of hernia sac with constructed veress needle in the treatment of indirect inguinal hernia in children has good application value, which has advantages of small surgical trauma, shorter hospital stay, faster recovery, and less postope-rative complications, and we can find out contralateral recessive hernia during operation and avoid the second surgery.
