Open Anterior Mesh Repair vs Modified Open Anterior Mesh Repair for Groin Hernia in Women
This randomized clinical trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of open anterior mesh repair compared with modified open anterior mesh repair for groin hernias among women in a low-income setting.
Key Points
Question
What is the safety and effectiveness of open anterior mesh repair compared with modified open anterior mesh repair with a mesh flap covering the femoral canal for groin hernias among women in a low-income setting?
Findings
In this randomized clinical trial including 200 women with a primary groin hernia, approximately half had femoral hernias. One year postoperatively, the recurrence rate was similar in the 2 study groups.
Meaning
Results demonstrate that the modified open anterior mesh repair can treat both inguinal and femoral hernias in women, but further evaluation is warranted.
