Clinical Trial Summary

Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is becoming increasingly popular mainly because of short-term advantages compared to open hernioplasties with mesh. In the prevailing economic climate, the total costs of treatment is a subject of intense research. This study is designed to evaluate the results of open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs, with a special emphasis in costs of treatment, complications and convalescence.
