Abstract:
The authors affirm that plastic surgery using graft materials is a feasible technique also in case of recurrent inguinal hernia. They follow with interest the evolution of laparoscopic techniques which are still the cause of some perplexity. The paper reports a series of nine recurrent inguinal hernias out of 447 inguinal hernias operated during the period May 1994-May 1996.
