Inguinal hernia repair – with and without mesh
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 10
Abstract
This is a review of 470 patients of Inguinal herniae operated at the Indian Institute of Medical Science and Research, Warudi over a period of 3 years. Although Mesh Repair has become Standard in most places, Bassini’s repair still has important place in selected patients – young patients with Indirect Hernia, small defect, good muscle and repair without tension. The study shows equally good results of repair without mesh in selected patients.
