Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All consenting patients with primary elective uni- lateral uncomplicated inguinal hernia planned for open mesh repair.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Recurrent or giant inguinal hernia with loss of do- main. 2. Hernia patients with disorders of hemostasis and coagulation 3. Chronic pain due to previously operated opposite side or due to any other medical problems 4. Patients undergoing concomitant surgeries along with mesh repair

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the efficacy of sutures vs N-butyl-2-cy- anoacrylate vs self-gripping mesh for mesh fixation in reducing postoperative pain during elective primary unilateral inguinal hernia repairTimepoint: day 0,1,2,7,30 of surgery

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare the short-term outcomes (local numbness and hematoma, seroma, rate of SSI, urinary retention, length of operation, intraoperative time for mesh fixation, Length of hospital stay and time to re- turn to work) between the three groups 2. To compare the long-term outcomes (Chronic pain, recurrence and cost benefit analysis), between the three groups. 3. To analyse cost effectiveness between the three groups Timepoint: day 0,1,2,7,30 and after 6 months of surgery
