Abstract

Inguinal hernias present a significant healthcare burden globally, necessitating effective surgical management. This comprehensive review evaluates two primary surgical techniques for managing bilateral inguinal hernias: bilateral open inguinal hernia and Rives-Stoppa repair. This review aims to provide insights into optimal surgical approaches through a comparative analysis of these techniques, including examining advantages, disadvantages, outcomes, and factors influencing technique selection. Bilateral open inguinal hernia repair offers simplicity and familiarity, while Rives-Stoppa repair may provide advantages such as reduced recurrence rates and postoperative complications. The findings underscore the importance of considering patient-specific factors, surgeon expertise, and hospital resources when selecting the optimal approach. Further research is warranted to conduct long-term comparative studies and explore innovations in surgical techniques and materials, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and advancing inguinal hernia repair practices.
