In a 21-year-old patient with recurrence of the right-sided inguinal hernia the right femoral vein was injured during the operative repair. The vein had to be reconstructed by the use of the right saphena vein and anticoagulative therapy was begun. Since the coagulation parameters were satisfactory the haematoma was produced in the operative wound and had to be evacuated through the second operation. The next operative course was without complications and the patient with healed operative wound was discharged from the hospital at the 13th hospitalization day.

Introduction: We report a novel approach to open inguinal hernia repair in patients with known ascites in which the cord, hernia sac, and attached testicle on the affected side are repositioned into the retroperitoneum through the inguinal ring. By avoiding invasion of the peritoneum and limiting dissection of the sac off the spermatic cord, the risk of ascites leak and testicular ischemia is theoretically decreased.
Methodology: This is a retrospective case series report.

Introduction: Amyand's hernia is a rare condition defined by the presence of the vermiform appendix within an inguinal hernia sac. The occurrence of Amyand's hernia with testicular necrosis is particularly uncommon, further complicating its clinical presentation and management.
Case Presentation: A 50-year-old male presented with a two-year history of progressive right scrotal swelling, acutely worsened over four days with pain and fever.

Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of Trans-umbilical single-port laparoscopic complete extraperitoneal closure (LCEC) and laparoscopic intracorporeal closure (LIC) for inguinal hernia by analysis of follow-up data over 5 years.
Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 524 children with inguinal hernia were randomly assigned to undergo LCEC or LIC between August 2016 and December 2017. The primary outcome measures were the success and recurrence rates.

Background: Surgical treatment of inguinal hernias in children is one of the most common operative procedures worldwide. During surgery for inguinal hernias in adults, chronic pain develops in approximately 10% of all cases. In children, there has been limited research to determine whether they may also develop this chronic postsurgical inguinal pain (CPIP).
