Abstract :

Laparoscopic hernia repair has gained wide popularity in recent years. The procedure has proved its superiority over its open counterpart in various aspects postoperatively. The most important obstacles in making the procedure popular for common people are material cost and acquiring skill for the procedure by the surgeon. In this study we compared the results of suture fixation of mesh and tacker fixation of mesh.
