Arms & Interventions
Neurectomy
In this group we did mesh hernioplasty of inguinal hernia with neurectomy of iliohypogastric and ilioinguinal nerve
Intervention: Neurectomy in inguinal hernia repair (Procedure)
Nerve Sparing
In this group we did mesh hernioplasty of inguinal hernia with preservation of iliohypogastric and ilioinguinal nerve
Intervention: nerve sparing in inguinal hernia repair (Procedure)
