abstract: The authors report their recent experience on the surgical treatment of inguinal hernias according to Shouldice Canadian repair, used for the undiscussed advantages. The least pre-operational preparation, the early mobilization of the patient, the reduction of the hospitalization and the almost total absence of relapses, support the application of this technique of which we auspicate a wider use.
