title: [Classical versus laparoscopic plasty of inguinal hernias].
abstract: Operations of hernias in groin area are frequent. They account for 7-10% of all operations in surgical departments. The surgical solution of inguinal hernias is not simple. There exist many correction techniques. At present there is moreover a laparoscopic approach. The aim of the present study was to compare the results of inguinal hernias operated using conventional and laparoscopic techniques on the surgical department of the Pardubice Hospital during 1997-1998. We focused attention on the incidence of peroperative and postoperative complications and reconvalescence period.
