Abstract
Background: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is an accepted technique for the treatment of primary inguinal hernias. There are several ways of mesh fixation including absorbable, non-absorbable staplers and even human fibrin glue. Little evidence is found when looking for a difference in recurrence rates between the first two.
