Most of our patient had unilateral inguinal hernia (85.0%) among patiens with unilateral hernia Most common form observed was indirect hernia (58%) and only 6.5% were pantaloon hernia. All the hernia repairs were elective procedures and all the surgeries were performed by associate professor and above level, Method of repair included TEPP (96.7%) and TAPP (3.4%).
