Prosthetic mesh in the form of a plug has been used extensively in the United States for hernia repair. It has been popular for all types of femoral hernias and for the majority of recurrent inguinal hernias. It follows the basic principle of 'tension-free' repair and permits unrestricted postoperative physical activity. The method has resulted in a long-term success rate better than the many modifications of the Bassini repair.

在美国，塞子形状的人工补片已被广泛用于疝气修补。它适用于所有类型的股疝以及大多数复发性腹股沟疝，一直很受欢迎。它遵循“无张力”修补的基本原则，术后可进行无限制的体力活动。该方法的长期成功率高于巴锡尼修补术的多种改良术式。
