Trocar insertion during laparoscopic preperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) can be troublesome because the space into which the trocars are inserted is smaller than that available for transabdominal approaches. Insertion of the trocars directly into the balloon used to dissect the preperitoneal space can facilitate this process. The insertion of a 5-mm trocar into the balloon does not usually result in balloon deflation, and a second trocar can be placed into the balloon as well. Removing the balloon, despite the trocars inside it, is straightforward, allowing the placement of a cannula at the balloon insertion site and initiation of the hernia repair.
