Retrospective cohort study assesses inguinal hernia repair outcomes in patients with preperitoneal reservoirs, indicating successful interventions with favorable effects.

Key Points

This study evaluates the short- and long-term outcomes of inguinal hernia repair in patients with preperitoneal reservoirs for urinary devices.
Retrospective cohort study conducted from January 31, 2010, to June 30, 2025.
Included 12 patients who developed an inguinal hernia post-implantation of either an artificial urinary sphincter or penile implant.
Operative approach primarily utilized was the anterior open technique.
Postoperative morbidity was 16% (2/12) with no reported cases of hernia recurrence or chronic pain.
Successful repair achieved in 84% (10/12 patients) using the open approach.
One device malfunction was noted 8 years post-surgery within a median follow-up of 73 months (95% CI 24–122).
