Brief summary

Inguinal hernia is one of the most common types of abdominal hernias. Laparoscopic hernioplasty of inguinal hernia is a good alternative to traditional open repairs even in simple unilateral primary inguinal hernia in terms of decrease post operative pain and complications with comparable recurrence rates.Two techniques are described in laparoscopic hernioplasty and have been extensively studied in randomised trials. The totally extraperitoneal (TEP) approach is more widely used than the transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) approach. In this study we will compare between the results of mesh fixation and non fixation as regard operative and postoperative data.

Interventions

PROCEDUREfixation of conventional polypropylene mesh

By fixation of the polyprolene mesh,patients will be divided into two groups: Group 1 includes patients with fixation of conventional polypropylene mesh. Group 2 includes patients without fixation of the mesh.
