“…18 In the present study, the recurrence rate was zero even after 1 year follow up. Similar observations were also reported by the Pedroso et al and Patil et al 19,20 However, 12 months is the shortest time to for estimating recurrence rate which is the limitation in the present study. Long term studies need to be done to know the exact efficacy of Lichtenstein tension-free mesh in inguinal hernia repair.…”

“…In this research, the high male quantity may be associated with the high number of men hospitalized for inguinal hernia surgery. This procedure is predominantly observed in men, due to the development of manual labor that require handling of heavy materials (19) . Thus, the results found in this study contradict the evidence in the literature, since, according to the DATASUS (20) , in 2017, in Rio de Janeiro (RJ), the female population presented a higher number of hospitalizations (197,996) than the male ones (130,361).…”
