[The Shouldice operation for inguinal hernia].
Operations of hernias are among the most frequent operations in general and in the SSR they account for 11% of all operations. Despite this incidence of relapse is high and amounts to some 5-30%. In the Surgical Clinic of the Hospital with Polyclinic Bezrucova, the authors operated since April 1, 1988 134 inguinal hernias. They used Shouldice's technique. In the paper the surgical procedure is described. In a perspective study the authors did not record so far any relapses. The incidence of postoperative complications is 8.25%. Despite short-term experience the authors recommend this operation which meets all preprequisites of modern and reliable operations of inguinal hernia - high ligature of the sac, reinforcement of the floor of the inguinal canal, plastic operation of the annulus inguinalis internus and transposition of the funiculus spermaticus.
