Abstract English

Background: Surgical repair of inguinal hernias is a common procedure in adult men. However, recurrence of hernias has been reported to occur after repair in 15 percent or more cases, and postoperative pain and disability are frequent. A laparoscopic method of performing a tension-free repair has subsequently been reported to result in low recurrence rates and to be associated with substantially less pain in the immediate postoperative period and earlier return to normal activities than the open-repair technique Objective: To compare open versus laparoscopic inguinal hernial repair in different aspects
Patients and Methods: A prospective study done through period of two years [from April 2012 to April 2014] on 89 male patients presenting to general-surgery clinics at Al-Kadhymia teaching hospital who were 18 to 45 years of age, had a diagnosis of inguinal hernia Conclusion: Laparoscopic inguinal hernial repair is a save and effective operation if it was done by expert laparoscopic surgeon with good patients selection
