The article compares the outcomes of traditional open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair performed in 550 children. The following parameters were assessed and analyzed in a specific cohort of children with an inguinal hernia: surgery time, postoperative pain severity, changes in the gonads on sonographic examination, and quality of life. The study demonstrates that the patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery show better results in the majority of the criteria if compared with those who underwent open resection. Moreover, the author-developed technique has slightly favorable outcomes. We introduce our method and report our experience with its application in this paper.
