Experimental evaluation of the influence of non-invasive and invasive methods of fixation of prostheses in herniology on the morphology of peripheral nerve structures

Abstract

To date, chronic postoperative inguinal pain is one of the most common complications of surgical treatment of inguinal hernias in the late postoperative period. The use of mesh implants is the foundation of almost all inguinal hernia repair techniques. However, the diversity and fundamental difference in their fixation methods necessitate a more targeted comparative evaluation, including regarding their impact on the development of chronic postoperative pain syndrome.
