Abstract

Hernia repair is a frequently conducted surgical operation on a global scale. Advancements in surgical methods, along with the advancement of novel materials for prosthetics and a deeper comprehension of their use, have greatly enhanced results for several patients. During our examination of prosthetic repair methods, we analyzed the Rutkow‐ Robbins Repair (Group A) the Gilbert double Repair (Group B) and the Lichtenstein procedure (Group C). In the upcoming study, a total of 110 cases were included, including 35 instances in group A, 20 cases in group B and 55 cases in group C, respectively. All cases were monitored for a duration of eighteen months. In this research, among a total of 110 patients, 60 (63.1%) patients had right indirect inguinal hernia, 30 (31.6%) patients had left indirect inguinal hernias and 10 (10.5%) patients had bilateral inguinal hernias. Based on the data provided, it is evident that there is a much larger occurrence of right‐sided indirect inguinal hernias compared to left‐sided indirect inguinal hernias and bilateral inguinal hernias. These results indicate that the Lichtenstein procedure is more beneficial than other surgeries since it requires less time in the hospital, has a lower rate of complications, and allows for a quicker return to everyday activities. Thus, the Lichtenstein technique is considered the most beneficial approach for repairing inguinal hernias.
