Comparative study of 32 Morgagni hernia patients treated with either classical open surgery or optical forceps-assisted single-port laparoscopic PIRS repair. The minimally invasive approach demonstrated shorter operation times with comparable safety and recurrence rates to traditional open repair.

Introduction This study aimed to compare the results of classical surgery (CS) and optical forceps-assisted single-port laparoscopic percutaneous internal ring suturing (SP-PIRS) repair for the treatment of Morgagni hernia.
Materials and Methods Patients with Morgagni hernia who were operated on between January 2005 and July 2020 were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups (CS or SP-PIRS) and compared retrospectively in terms of demographic data, defect size, duration of hospitalization, costs, postoperative complications, and recurrence.
Results Thirty-two patients were included in this study. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of gender, defect size, postoperative complications, and recurrence (p > 0.05). The SP-PIRS group had a shorter operation time (p
