Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Adult men between 18 -70 years with unilateral inguinal hernia and fit for general anaesthesia under ASA grade I and II.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with complicated hernia, i.e. irreducible, obstructed and strangulated hernias, previous lower abdominal surgery and coagulopathies. Patients who are not giving informed consent for randomization, blinding, or TEP.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Difference in initial space dissection between the two groups will be measured in terms of: 1.Peritoneal breach. 2.Bleeding during initial space creation(nil/mild/moderate/severe) 3.Dropping of inferior epigastric vessels 4.Initial extraperitoneal space creation:satisfactory or unsatisfactory 5.Time between initial incision and insertion of third portTimepoint: During the surgical procedure only.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Difference in post operative pain, analgesic requirement, intraoperative and postoperative complications, duration of surgery between groups 2.Effect of body habitus on the ease of procedureTimepoint: During surgery and post-operative period upto 3 months
