Overview
Reinforcement of the anterior wall of the inguinal canal and tightening of the external inguinal ring was first discovered by Stromayr in 1559. In 1871, new use of carbolized catgut ligature was developed by Marcy to treat inguinal hernia. Twisted and suture-transfixed the peritoneal sac in the lateral muscles through the external ring was developed by Kocher to treat inguinal hernia.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Reinforcement of the anterior wall of the inguinal canal and tightening of the external inguinal ring was first discovered by Stromayr in 1559.[1]
- Reinforcement of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and the tightening of the internal inguinal ring via an intraabdominal approach by laparotomy was first discovered by Tait in 1891.[2]
- Reinforcement of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and the tightening of the internal inguinal ring via laparoscopically was first discovered by Velez and Klein in 1990.
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1871, new use of carbolized catgut ligature was developed by Marcy to treat inguinal hernia.[3]
- In 1876, ligating and excising the indirect peritoneal sac through the external ring was developed by Czerny to treat inguinal hernia.[1]
- Twisted and suture-transfixed the peritoneal sac in the lateral muscles through the external ring was developed by Kocher to treat inguinal hernia.
- In 1886, reefed the peritoneal sac into a plug to block the internal ring was developed by MacEwen to treat inguinal hernia.[4]
- Opened the external oblique aponeurosis to expose the entire inguinal canal was developed by Lucas-Championniere to treat inguinal hernia.
- In 1935, tensionless technique was based on strengthening of the posterior wall of inguinal canal with prosthetic material by Lichtenstein to treat inguinal hernia.[2]
