[Surgery of inguinal hernia].
In a retrospective analysis the long-term results--mean 13 years--after herniotomy and Bassini-repair are discussed. The recurrence rate based on questionnaire was 10.5%, based on clinical examination 23% for first operation. Considering our results it's--in accordance with the literature--evident that both clinical examination and long-term control are important for the evaluation of the real recurrence rate. Regarding the results we are performing a modified Shouldice repair now.
