Inguinal herniorrhaphy remains one of the most common general surgical operations, with approximately 10 to 20 per cent performed for recurrence. Subsequent repairs provide considerable technical challenge, as well as substantially greater risk of developing further recurrence.

Inguinal herniorrhaphy remains one of the most common surgical operations, with approximately 10 to 20 per cent performed for recurrence. Reviews by specialized hernia centers show mesh repair has a recurrence rate of 0.2 per cent. Detractors of this repair include increased cost, technical difficulty, and risk for infection. The purpose of this st...

... The mechanism [8] of the recurrence after inguinal hernia surgery includes the following cases: First, areas with possible hernia occurrence, such as unnoticed femoral defects , are not identified. Second, if the defective area in the inferior inguinal wall is repaired, a separate hernia may occur as more tensile strength is applied to the non-repaired area. ...
... In spite of high rate of anatomical repair in all varieties of abdominal wall hernias, the recurrence rate is 1.4%. Even though some patients might have not responded to enquiryit is not more than 2% to 3% -comparable to the results of Janu PG et al. [28,10] Hence, in suitable cases anatomical repair should be done. Mesh hernioplasty is definitely superior to other varieties of repair (very negligible recurrences). ...
... Cuando aparece una recidiva de la hernia inguinal que fue previamente intervenida por vía anterior, suele plantearse la reparación posterior, ya sea abierta o laparoscópica 35,36 , y viceversa; es decir, se aconseja operar por vía anterior una recidiva herniara intervenida quirúrgicamente por vía preperitoneal o posterior. En algunas ocasiones, la reparación inguinal por vía anterior deja el espacio preperitoneal impoluto, pero, muchas veces, cuando nos enfrentamos a dicho espacio tras una recidiva, comprobamos que existen adherencias firmes por fibrosis, por antiguas suturas o por tapones y mallas implantados previamente que dificultarán la correcta preparación de la zona para realizar la nueva hernioplastia incluso para el cirujano más avezado 37 tanto en cirugía abierta como laparoscópica, lo que alarga considerablemente el tiempo quirúrgico 38 . ...
