DiscussionDiscussion

Although long-term follow-up is Although long-term follow-up is needed, the early result of pre-needed, the early result of pre-peritoneal hernioplasty using peritoneal hernioplasty using ULTRAPROULTRAPRO mesh is as efficient as mesh is as efficient as PROLENE analogue. PROLENE analogue.

SummarySummary

Underlay pocket graft, either along Underlay pocket graft, either along use or combined in PHS device, can use or combined in PHS device, can facilitate the result of pre-peritoneal facilitate the result of pre-peritoneal hernioplasty. It’s role in inguinal hernioplasty. It’s role in inguinal hernioplasty will be high- lightened hernioplasty will be high- lightened by the usage of by the usage of ULTRAPROULTRAPRO mesh. mesh.
