Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Aim is to evaluate outcomes of inguinal hernia repair incorporating the standard Lichtenstein (open) repair using Biodesign IHM in a double blind (physician evaluator and patient will be blinded), randomized, prospective comparative study with polypropylene mesh. Primary outcome is recurrence at 1 year. Hernia recurrence will be confirmed via ultrasound or CT scan.
