title: [Treatment of inguinal hernia by insertion of a subperitoneal patch under pre-peritoneoscopy].
abstract: From 1989 to 1991, 50 male patients presenting with reducible oblique lateral inguinal hernias were treated with a technique consisting in the insertion of a prosthetic Prolene patch (60 x 110 mm) interposed between the muscular wall and the peritoneal pouch. The prosthetic material was introduced and positioned anterior to the peritoneum using a laparoscope, after creating a pre- then a retropneumascos. This technique is a new application of non-invasive endoscopic surgery.
