Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is frequently performed during humanitarian surgical missions due to the high prevalence of hernia in low income countries (LIC). It is unclear whether the allocation of resources aimed at IHR is justified as the burden of these hernias is unknown. We hypothesized that inguinal hernias result in significant reduction in activity and productivity in LIC.
