Desarda Repair for Inguinal Hernia

December 30, 2014 updated by: Tamer Youssef Mohamed, Mansoura University

Desarda Versus Lichtenstein's Repair for Inguinal Hernia: a Comparative Study

Unlike Lichtenstein tension free repair for inguinal hernia, Desarda's repair was introduced as a pure tissue repair with no need for mesh. In other words; the complications which may arise from the use of a foreign body (mesh) will be avoided. The idea was to evaluate the efficacy of this new repair and compare it to the standard Lichtenstein repair.

Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Lichtenstein tension free reair
mesh repair of inguinal hernia
Procedure: Lichtenstein tension free reair
a mesh is apllied on the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and sutured to the inguinal ligament below, to the internal oblique muscle above , and to rectus sheath medially.
Other Names:

ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Desarda's repair
non-mesh repair of inguinal hernia
Procedure: Desarda's repair
the repair is done using a flap of the external oblique aponeurosis sutured to the inguinal ligament below and to the aponeurotic part of the internal oblique muscle above.
Other Names:
  • pure tissue reapir
