Abstract

Inguinal herniorrhaphy is one of the most frequent surgical procedures around the world. Therefore its optimization has been tried to reduce expenses, hospitalization time and complications resulting from surgical and anesthetic procedures. This experiment compared regional and local anesthesia in herniorrhaphy of 32 patients divided into two groups. Regional anesthesia was applied to group one patients and local anesthesia was applied to group two patients. Regional anesthesia showed to be more effective in terms of trans-surgical discomfort while local anesthesia showed to be more efficient in reducing post-surgical complications and hospitalization time.
