Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair techniques has been compared with the open techniques in several studies.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects at 6 months of the divided and non divided mesh in laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal hernia repair technique on testicular volume and blood flow by use of Doppler Ultrasonography
