[457 inguinal and femoral hernioplasties with synthetic prosthetic materials].
The authors retrospectively analyse 457 inguinal and femural hernioplasties with synthetic prosthesis materials, during a period of 10 years. There have been discussions going on about the prosthesis utilisation indications (advanced stages, complex inguinal hernia), type of prosthesis that has been used, the modalities of inserting a prosthesis and the surgical techniques employed. In 164 (34%) of the operations the mesh has been used as an reinforcement and 293 (64%) of the interventions were "tension-free" operations. The average reccurrence was approximately 1%, during a period ranging between 1 to 5 years.
