Core Tip

Core Tip: Computed tomography 3-dimensional (CT 3D) reconstruction techniques are combined with laparoscopic measurements to obtain myospubic foramen (MPO) size data. To study the effects of different gender, age, body mass index and other factors on the size of the musopubic foramen. Through the analysis of CT 3D imaging and laparoscopic measurement results, the value of CT 3D reconstruction technology in guiding surgery was clarified. Through a retrospective analysis of 74 patients undergoing laparoscopic tension-free inguinal hernia repair, it was found that the combination of CT 3D reconstruction technology and laparoscopic measurement could effectively obtain relevant data of myospubic foramen to reduce postoperative recurrence and adverse reactions.
