Abstract
Chronic inguinal neuralgia is one of the most significant complications following inguinal hernia repair. Subsequent patient disability can be severe & may often require numerous interventions for treatment. The purpose of the study is to evaluate long term outcomes following nerve excision to nerve preservation when performing lichenstein inguinal hernia repairs.
A prospective study of cases with excision of illionguinal & illiohypogastric nerve excision during lichenstein hernia repair with post operative groin repair at 6 month & 1 yrs from May 2015-17 was carried out in the Deptt. of General Surgery, VSSIMSAR, Burla.
