Aim
Inguinal hernias are a common condition that often requires surgical repair, with
various techniques available for treatment. The Prolene Hernia System (PHS) and
Lichtenstein hernioplasty are two commonly used methods, each with distinct approaches. This study aims to compare these two techniques to assess key clinical
outcomes such as postoperative pain, seroma formation, Foreign Body Sensation
(FBS), recurrence rates and infection.
Materials and Methods
A total of 51 male patients from the Government Medical College and Hospital,
Chandigarh, were randomly assigned to undergo either PHS or Lichtenstein hernioplasty. Outcomes such as postoperative pain, seroma formation, FBS, recurrence
rates and infection were monitored over a 3-month follow-up period.
