Cyanoacrylate Glue as an Alternative for Peritoneal Closure.

Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgical procedures. Traditionally, traumatic fixations have been used to prevent mesh migration, resulting in chronic pain in the groin. However, a non-traumatic alternative with cyanoacrylate glue is offered. A 50-year-old male patient underwent elective surgery for inguinal hernia repair. During the surgery, it was decided to use cyanoacrylate glue for mesh fixation without complications. In his follow-up consultation, the patient showed a satisfactory course. The use of cyanoacrylate glue, a synthetic resorbable adhesive, for more rapid wound closure has shown favorable results. It is characterized by a low rate of complications and a significant decrease in groin pain in the short- and medium-term. This technique is considered a viable and effective alternative for the reduction of complications, with promising clinical results.
