[Local anesthesia and ambulatory surgery for inguinal hernia. Apropos of 737 patients].
737 cases of ambulatory herniorrhaphy performed under local anaesthesia are reported. The Shouldice technique is used. Two pharmacokinetic studies (lidocaine bupivacaine) confirm the innocuity of local anaesthesia. The authors focus their discussion on an other approach of surgery, and the medical network.
