Abstract

Fifteen animals with indirect inguinal hernias were treated by closure of the abdominal opening of the patent processus vaginalis by the application of staples laparoscopically. The satisfactory results confirm those obtained in a previous study, where similar openings found during laparotomy for abdominal surgery were closed by the application of metal clips. Laparoscopic closure of the abdominal opening of a hernial sac may have advantages over the present operative management.
