Abstract

Aim: To compare preperitoneal meshplasty and Lichtenstein’s hernioplasty in patients with inguinal hernia.
Methodology: A total of one hundred six cases of inguinal hernia were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups of 53 each. Group, I patients underwent preperitoneal meshplasty, and group II patients underwent Lichtenstein’s hernioplasty technique of inguinal hernia repair. Parameters such as time taken for surgery early complications were recorded.
Results: Group I had 22 males and 18 females, and group II had 25 males and 15 females. The mean time of surgery in group I was 46.2 minutes, and in group II was 55.2 minutes. An early complication was seroma two each in group I and 1 in group II, wound infection 3 cases in group I and 2 in group II, pain 2 in group I, mesh infection 3 in group I and 1 in group II and testicular atrophy 1 in group I. The difference was significant (P< 0.05).
Conclusion: Both techniques such as preperitoneal meshplasty and Lichtenstein’s hernioplasty were effective in management of inguinal hernia.
