Randomized Prospective Double-Blinded Study of Histoacryl™Mesh Fixation Compared to Conventional Non-absorbable Suture Fixation During Lichtenstein Hernioplasty
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Lichtenstein Hernioplasty with Histoacryl and Lichtenstein Hernioplasty with Sutures for Inguinal Hernia. Completed, enrolled 370 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a prospective, randomized double-blinded study to find out if mesh fixation with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) are more painless than conventional mesh fixation with sutures in inguinal hernia operation (Lichtenstein procedure) in day-case surgery. Our hypothesis is that glue fixation is safe, simple and fast method compared to conventional Lichtenstein technique.
