Özet

Purpose: Femoral hernias (FH) are rarely seen in children, so there is no consensus on the age and sex distribution or the optimum method of repair. Recently, repair of the femoral hernias with mesh-plug has gained wide popularity in adults. The authors used this method in 4 children with FH and discuss its utilization in children. Methods: Four consecutive children with femoral hernia were treated using mesh-plug. Patients’ characteristics and operative technique was described. Results: Plugging femoral defect with a mesh-plug was applied successfully in children. No complications were seen after a follow-up period for 2 years (range, 8 to 30 months). Conclusion: Repair of femoral hernias with mesh-plug is performed easily and successfully in children. J Pediatr Surg 37:1456-1458. Copyright 2002, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
