Abstract:
PURPOSE:The study aims to compare the clinical efficacy, complications, and patient satisfaction rates of two open hydrocelectomy techniques, Jaboulay's technique, and sac excision hydrocelectomy using a LigaSure™ device, in a prospective and randomized fashion. METHODS:Eighty-two (82) patients were randomized, one-to-one into two groups. All surgeries were carried out by a single surgeon. Jaboulay's technique and hydrocelectomy with excision of the sac were carried out in the first and the second groups, respectively. The patients' data were collected prospectively on the first day, the first week, the first month, and the sixth month after surgery. Patient demographics, length of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and sixth-month cosmetic satisfaction rates were compared between the groups. RESULTS:We observed better patient satisfaction [73.2% confer (cf.) 92.9%], shorter hospital stay (1.66 cf. 1.29 days), and less incidence of postoperative edemas (31.7% cf. 6%) in the sac excision hydrocelectomy group (p = 0.017, p = 0.011, and p = 0.029, respectively). CONCLUSION:We can report that hydrocelectomy with an excision of the sac using a vessel-sealing device, namely LigaSure™, provides less incidences of postoperative edemas and better patient satisfaction rates respective to the Jaboulay's technique in the treatment of adult hydrocele. The statistical difference between hospital stay times is mostly affected by social factors in our study. Clinically, all patients were amenable to discharge in the first day.
