Rives Technique Versus Lichtenstein Repair for Primary Inguinal Hernia

NCT03488342 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 600

Last updated 2018-04-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Lichtenstein technique, inserting a mesh over the inguinal cord in the neurological plane, is considered the standard of inguinal hernia repair, but it has 4% recurrence and 12% chronic postoperative pain. Rives technique inserts the mesh in the preperitoneal space behind the neurological plane and the muscular plane, thus better fulfilling the principle of hydrostatics.
