Abstract

Background: Inguinal hernia repair is the most common general surgery procedure, and several hundred thousand are performed every year in the United States.

Those who didn’t give consent and were having serious illness immuno-compromised state were excluded from the study. The selected patients w Polyester Mesh (Group A) and Polypropylene (Group B), the material used for the inguinal hernia repair by a computer generated random numbers. The pain at various post analysis done by un-paired tage group of >50 - 54.76% followed by patients were Male i.e. 76.19% followed by Female 23.81%. and Group B was 53 ± 7.8 Min. which is comparable to each other (P>0.05). Pain by VAS on Day 1 was 4.5 ± 2.4 Group A and 5.1± 2.8 Group B which is significa Group B which is significant (P<0.05). Seroma Size on Day1 was 4.8 ± 2.2 ml in Group A while 3.1 ± 1.1 ml in Group B which is significant (P< 0.05) while on Day 5 the size was 8.5 significant (P<0.05).Conclusion: Polypropylene suture for the hernia repair in view of post reaction is less to Polyester Mesh.
