No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Post operative acute urinary retension or voiding dysfunction are complications after inguinal hernia repair and they cause a great deal of discomfort and stress to patients. Furthermore, they can also increase hospital costs by increasing hospital stay, and by growing the need for outpatient appointments after an elective surgical procedure. Some studies recommend prophylactic alpha blockers to minimizing these adverse effects.

Investigators aimed to determine the changes of uroflowmetric values for male patients following elective inguinal hernia repair.
