Comparing suture with N-Hexyl Cyanoacrylate glue for mesh fixation in inguinal hernia repair, a randomised clinical trial.

Purpose: Inguinal hernia is a common surgical problem and different methods are currently used to repair it. In The Lichtenstein technique, the inguinal floor defect is buttressed with a prosthetic mesh and commonly, sutures are used for mesh fixation. N-Hexyl Cyanoacrylate is a gluelike product that can be used for mesh fixation as a substitute with fewer complications.
