Summary

This study aims to compare Desarda's technique and Lichtenstein's technique of hernia repair in managing elective, non-complicated inguinal hernia.

Detailed description

Mesh prosthesis was introduced to hernial surgery as a magic solution for any inguinal hernia, and it has significant advantages (Simplicity of the procedure, Mesh is cheap, and has a low recurrence rate). Still, mesh induces fibrosis that can lead to stiffness and foreign body sensation, which become a source of agony for the patient. Mesh infection is one of the serious complications that can lead to the removal of the mesh and long-term terms morbidity from Lichtenstein hernia repairs, such as Vas entrapment and Chronic groin pain. Desarda technique requires no extensive dissection or only suturing; no mesh is needed, and it is easy to learn. It is still ferrated and determined the optimum procedure to treat an inguinal hernia. It is a straightforward operation that avoids the risks of mesh implantation, has a low recurrence rate, and can be done by non-consultant staff.
