Abstract: Objective To investigate the membrane anatomical characteristics and clinical application of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Methods The anatomy of the anterior abdominal wall and postoperative video analysis were observed during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in 47 patients with inguinal hernia in our hospital. The surgical approach and anatomical level were described. Results Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair was performed between the transverse abdominal fascia and the preperitoneal fascia. The avascular plane could be dissected and separated with minimal bleeding. The parietal plane and the visceral plane were connected to each other and the preperitoneal fascia needed to be removed. Conclusions Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair under the guidance of membrane anatomy can make the operation more delicate and reduce surgical complications.
