Selection criteria were: informed consent, age over 15 years, uncomplicated primary inguinal hernias, normal prostate ultrasound and PSA results for adult males over 50 years of age. Results: The study included 100 cases of uncomplicated inguinal hernia repair in 94 patients operated on by aponeurotic plasty (Desarda technique). The patients were 88 men (94%) and 6 women (6%), with a mean age of 44.7 years and extremes of 19 and 78 years. The majority of patients (37 or 39.36%) were blue-collar workers. The hernia was unilateral in 88 patients and bilateral in 6. One woman had a bilateral hernia. The hernia was located only on the right in 72 cases and only on the left in 20. According to the Nyhus classification, type IIIb 45% was the most frequent. The patients were operated on under spinal anesthesia in 68 cases. On the first postoperative day, nine patients (9.57%) were assessed as having moderate pain. Beyond the third month, pain assessment revealed five cases of chronic pain. Surgical site infection was the most frequent complication. With an average follow-up of 17 months, no cases of recurrence were noted.
