Repair of right inguinal hernia
Patient was brought to the OR and underwent general anesthesia. The right groin was prepped and draped in the usual fashion. Incision was made from the pubic tubercle through anterior superior iliac spine. This was carried down to the subcut tissue to the external oblique fascia. There was noted to be a large inguinal hernia which was dissected out down to the internal ring. A medium Perlix plug was inserted into the defect and then sutured at four points with interrupted 2-0 Prolene. The patient tolerated the procedure well and was taken to recovery in stable condition.
