“慢性疝修补术后疼痛”一词在文献中有各种各样的解释。国际疼痛研究协会将慢性疼痛定义为持续3个月以上的疼痛。20然而，随着合成补片在疝修补术中的现代应用，由于对异物的反应，炎症反应可能会持续几个月。因此，本综述的入选标准为：疝手术后疼痛≥ 6个月的研究，包括≥ 100例患者。使用PUBMED搜索引擎（国家生物技术信息中心，美国国家医学图书馆，美国）和奥维德搜索引擎（奥维德技术公司，Wolters Kluwer，阿姆斯特丹，荷兰）进行检索。我们在2004年5月检索了这两个数据库，涵盖了2000年1月至2004年4月的时间段。术语“疼痛”与术语"腹股沟疝“合并。探索了与疼痛相关的其他词汇，如“神经病”、“不适”、“并发症”、“后果”和“结果”。搜索仅限于“成人19岁以上”和“英语”。此外，还纳入了2004年4月之后在审查过程中发表的一些文章，以及作者已知但未在数据库中找到的文章。对数据库检索中未找到的文献进行参考文献交叉检查。检查了其他研究的综述。给编辑的信和摘要不包括在内。
MethodsThe term ‘chronic post-herniorrhaphy pain’has a wide variety of interpretations in the literature. The International Association for the Study of Pain has defined chronic pain as pain lasting more than 3 months. 20 However, with the modern use of synthetic mesh for hernia repair, an inflammatory response may last a couple of months as a result of a reaction against the foreign material. The criteria for inclusion in this review were therefore: studies of pain more than/equal to 6 months after hernia surgery and including more than/equal to 100 patients. A search was made using the PUBMED search engine (National Centre for Biotechnology Information, US National Library of Medicine, USA), and the Ovid search engine (Ovid Technologies, Wolters Kluwer, Amsterdam, The Netherlands). We searched both databases in May 2004 and covered the period January 2000 through to April 2004. The term ‘pain’was combined with the term ‘hernia, inguinal’. Other words associated with pain were explored, such as ‘neuropathy’,‘discomfort’,‘complications’,‘consequences’, and ‘results’. The search was restricted to ‘adult 19+’and ‘English language’. In addition, some articles published during the review process after April 2004 were included, as were articles known by the authors, but not found in the databases. References were crosschecked for literature not found in the database search. Reviews were checked for additional studies. Letters to the editor and abstracts were not included.
