title: [Choice of technique in "difficult" inguinal hernias. Personal experience].
abstract: The authors refer on their positive results in the treatment of so-called difficult inguinal hernias (relapsing or multiple hernias) with the use of prosthetic prolene mesh according to Stoppa's procedure (partly modified) through a preperitoneal approach after a Pfannenstiel's incision. On the other hand recurrent hernias in risky patients as well as gross hernias are treated by Rives' method which consists in a prolene mesh placement through the inguinal approach.
