Tension-free repair versus modified Bassini technique (Andrews technique) for strangulated inguinal hernia: a comparative study

To compare tension-free hernia repair to a modified Bassini technique (Andrew's technique) used to treat complicated inguinal hernia. In the period 1990-2004, 75 patients were submitted to emergency operation because of strangulated inguinal hernia. 33 patients underwent tension-free repair uti...

Zusammenfassung:	To compare tension-free hernia repair to a modified Bassini technique (Andrew's technique) used to treat complicated inguinal hernia. In the period 1990-2004, 75 patients were submitted to emergency operation because of strangulated inguinal hernia. 33 patients underwent tension-free repair utilizing a polypropylene mesh (group A), whereas the remaining 42 patients underwent a modified Bassini technique (group B). Mean operative time was significantly longer for group B (91.5+/-9.3 min vs 75.7+/-10.5 min, p
