Laparoscopic-assisted percutaneous herniorrhaphy as an alternative to open surgery technique in farm swines.
<h4>Background</h4>Despite numerous experimental studies presenting laparoscopic treatment of inguinal hernia in a pig model so far no described technique has been used in clinical patients of this species. Minimal invasiveness and the simplicity of closure of the inguinal canal using th...
