Are laparoscopic hernia repairs “better”?

0

No. At present, studies have shown comparable results with recurrence rates. However, cost is increased, general anesthesia is required, unusual complications can occur and return to work is not as impressive as first presented. Laparoscopy has a place in hernia repair, but this newer technique is not a panacea.
