Search for: [Abstract = "Summaries and ConclusionsBased on the results obtained it was observed that\:§ There was no significant statistical difference between herniarepair technique and the incidence of complications, such aswound suppuration, fever, wound dehiscence, testicle hydrocele,testicle atrophy, spermatic cord cysts. After Lichtenstein herniarepairs there were more cases of seroma and inflammatoryinfiltrations in surgical wound. Scrotum\/pudendal lip edemaoccurred more frequently after PHS repair. Significantly morecases of haematoma were observed after Lichtenstein operations,fewer cases after PHS and Rutkow\-Robbins repairs. Significantlymore cases of recurrent hernia occurred after Lichtenstein, fewerafter Rutkow\-Robbins and PHS.§ No correlation was found between hernia recurrence and timing ofsurgery, hospital stay, and elective or emergency type of surgery.§ Only in case of scrotum\/pudendal lip edema after surgerycorrelation was found with Nyhus type of hernia. This occurredsignificantly more frequently in Nyhus type II and IV hernias, andless commonly in Nyhus I cases.§ Hernia repair technique had no effect on the incidence ofpostoperative pain. However,it was reported more frequently after Lichtenstein herniaoperations and less frequently after PHS repairs. No correlationwas found between hernia repair technique and pain intensityscored by the VAS scale.§ No correlation was found between pain intensity \(VAS scores\) andbody weight \(BMI\). There was correlation between pain intensityand age\: patients, aged 21\-34 years, reported more frequentlychronic pain compared with elderly patients over 65 years.§ No correlation was found between body weight and frequency ofrecurrences\: BMI was comparable in the groups of patients withand without hernia recurrence.§ The level of physical activity of the patient after Lichtensteinhernia repairs was lower compared with PHS repairs.§ The choice of the technique had no effect on sexual activity of thepatients after surgery.§ No significant statistical difference was found between timing ofsurgery and technique of hernia repair."]
