[Recurrent inguinal hernia. The surgical procedure and technic].

The authors describe two years and six months of personal experience in the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia with polypropylene mesh. There was a follow-up with controls every 6 months with excellent results. From the data of the operation we programmed a further control 1'after 5 and 10 years. Considering the limited number of cases and the fact that the follow-up is not yet at completion, the information is provided as preliminary.
