Open versus keyhole repair for first-time groin hernia in women
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to fix a first-time groin hernia in women: a standard open surgery and a less invasive endoscopic (keyhole) technique. If you're a woman with a first-time groin hernia, this study could help determine which approach works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a first-time hernia in the groin area (not one that came back).
- Your surgery is planned, not an emergency.
- You should have an actual hernia bulge, not just pain in the groin without a bulge.
- You need to be in reasonably good health (not severely frail or sick).
- This trial is only for women.

This study compares two ways of doing keyhole surgery for hernias in the groin: the usual laparoscopic approach versus a robot-assisted approach. It may help show which method is safer or more effective for people with hernias on both sides.
This study looks at emergency surgery to fix a hernia – a bulge or tear in the belly or groin area. If you need this surgery, the trial may help doctors learn the best way to treat you.
This study compares two minimally invasive techniques for repairing a groin hernia (a bulge where tissue pushes through muscle). The goal is to see if a newer method improves recovery and outcomes compared to the standard approach.
This trial tests a keyhole (laparoscopic) surgical technique to repair inguinal hernias that have returned after previous surgery. The goal is to evaluate how well this approach works and what outcomes patients experience.
This trial tests a newer surgical technique called TREPP to repair inguinal hernias (bulges in the groin area). The approach may reduce pain and recovery time compared to traditional surgery.
This trial tests two minimally invasive surgical methods for fixing a hernia near the belly button. It aims to find which approach works better and has fewer complications.
