Summary

This is a prospective, randomized multi-centre study to find out most safe, feasible, painless and cost-effective mesh fixation method in inguinal hernia operation. Three mesh fixation techniques are compared to find out best technique in local anaesthesia Lichtenstein operation. Our hypothesis is that glue fixation is safe, simple and cheap method compared to conventional Lichtenstein technique.
