This study aims to retrospectively analyze boys with IH, who underwent open IH repair by Bianchi incision.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ASec2\" class=\"AbstractSection\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\">Methods<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Para\">A total of 3300 boys (1\u2013144\u00a0months) with IH from April 2007 to September 2015 were enrolled into this study. An open high scrotal incision (Bianchi incision) to ligate the processus proximal to the internal inguinal ring was performed in patients for IH repair. Then, all patients were followed up after 7\u00a0days, 1\u00a0month, and 1\u00a0year. Operation time, hernia recurrence, hydrocele, testicular atrophy, cosmetic results, and the satisfaction of parents were evaluated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ASec3\" class=\"AbstractSection\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\">Results<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Para\">Among these 3300 boys, 1662 (50.36%) and 1349 (40.88%) boys with IH were operated on the right and left side, respectively, while 289 (8.76%) patients underwent bilateral surgery. The average operation time was 13.0\u2009\u00b1\u20092.3\u00a0min for unilateral cases and 25.2\u2009\u00b1\u20094.2\u00a0min for bilateral cases. Furthermore, among these 3300 boys, 309 boys (9.36%) were lost to follow-up, and the remaining 2991 boys underwent a total of 3245 IH repairs. The complications included 20 recurrences who were repaired with the same technique, one wound rupture, and one acquired undescended testis. No infection, obvious scrotal hematoma, testicular atrophy, and vas deferens injury were found during the follow-up. In most instances, the scars were invisible, obtaining an excellent cosmetic effect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ASec4\" class=\"AbstractSection\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Para\">Inguinal hernia repair by Bianchi incision is a safe, easy and effective technique with cosmetic benefits, which could be a reliable alternative for the treatment of pediatric inguinal hernia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"KeywordGroup\" lang=\"en\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\">Keywords<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"Keyword\">Inguinal hernia repair\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"Keyword\">Bianchi incision\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"Keyword\">Patent processus vaginalis (PPV)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"AbbreviationGroup\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\">Abbreviations<\/h3>\n<div class=\"DefinitionList\">\n<dl>\n<dt class=\"Term\">IH Inguinal hernia<\/dt>\n<dt class=\"Term\">PPV Patent processus vaginalis<\/dt>\n<dt class=\"Term\">CPPV Contralateral patent processus vaginalis<\/dt>\n<dt class=\"Term\">MCH Metachronous contralateral hernia<\/dt>\n<dt class=\"Term\">LPEC Laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"Bib1\" class=\"Section1 RenderAsSection1\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<h3 class=\"Heading\" tabindex=\"-1\" data-role=\"collapsible-handle\">References<\/h3>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<ol class=\"BibliographyWrapper\">\n<li class=\"Citation\">\n<div class=\"CitationNumber\">Lau ST, Lee YH, Caty MG (2007) Current management of hernias and hydroceles.
