Abstract:

An unambiguous identification of anterior rectus sheath (ARS) is a crucial initial step required for precise umbilical porting in order to achieve successful execution of laparoscopic totally extra-peritoneal (TEP) hernioplasty. However, it is scarcely discussed in the present-day literature. Backed with the experience of 1100 cases, we present an easy and rapid technique of exposing the anterior rectus sheath with the aim to save operative time without compromising the safety. Such a method is yet to be described in the literature.
