A randomised controlled trial of Lichtenstein repair with Desarda repair in the management of inguinal hernias

CONCLUSION: Desarda repair was found to be as effective as the Lichtenstein repair in terms of recurrence and better in terms of chronic inguinodynia, complications and post operative pain scores. Desarda repair requires a significantly shorter operating time. The economic burden of this repair is much less compared to mesh repair.PMID:34188908 | PMC:PMC8219653 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102486
