No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The European Hernia Society Guidelines of 2018 suggest that laparoscopic surgery should be preferred over open surgery for bilateral inguinal hernia repair even though scientific evidence are scarce. We will conduct a prospective, non randomise control trial, to investigate the superiority of one technique over the other.
