Comparing two hernia repair methods without mesh
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to repair an inguinal hernia without using mesh. It may be an option if you are a man over 18 who needs a straightforward hernia repair.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have an inguinal hernia (a bulge in your groin).
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must be male.
- You cannot have any other surgery planned at the same time.

This study compares two ways to fix a mesh during groin hernia surgery: 3D patch with one stitch versus no stitches at all. It aims to see which method leads to less long-term pain and fewer hernias coming back. If you have a first-time, moderately large groin hernia, you may qualify.
This study compares three ways of holding the mesh in place during hernia surgery to see which causes the least pain and best outcomes. If you're having this surgery, joining could help improve recovery and comfort.
This trial tests a new 3D mesh (Optomesh 3D) for repairing a first-time inguinal hernia using laparoscopic surgery. The goal is to see how safe and effective the mesh is without using extra fixation. This could mean a simpler procedure and possibly less pain after surgery.
