Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
It may even outweigh the benefit of the operation. Intraoperative neurectomy has been investigated to reduce the incidence of chronic pain.
This study evaluates the effects of elective division of the ilioinguinal, iliohypogastric and genital branch of the genitofemoral nerves on pain and postoperative sensory symptoms after Lichtenstein hernia repair.
