Pediatric inguinal hernia repair

Children with inguinal oblique hernias are mostly caused by congenital peritoneal sheath processes. Because children are in the developmental process, only the hernia sac needs to be ligated at a high position during surgery, and most of them do not need to remove the hernia sac and repair the posterior wall of the inguinal canal. Common methods include high ligation of the inguinal hernia sac and high dissection of the abdominal hernia sac.
