Preface
Inguinal hernia repair remains one of the most commonly performed opera-
tion in the United States and internationally. The multiple surgical procedures
that have been described to address this show the challenge that surgeons face
on a daily basis – that is, there is not a single “best” operation to suit a wide
variety of patients with significantly different clinical scenarios. Currently,
texts have addressed the ventral and incisional hernias, but there has not been
a comprehensive guide to the management of the inguinal hernia, which rep-
resents a large number of surgical procedures performed. Surgical Principles
in Inguinal Hernia Repair has been written by many of the key leaders in
hernia surgery with the hopes of being able to share not only the latest litera-
ture but also the “tricks and tips” that really make up the details of these surgi-
cal procedures. It presents a curriculum for basic and common general surgery
procedures while detailing the complex scenarios in which one can encounter
an inguinal hernia such as in the setting of bowel injury or contamination or
in a patient needing prostatectomy. The technical details including online
access to surgical videos are discussed for many different scenarios. It is our
hope that this text will guide the reader to consider and learn to apply each of
these surgical techniques to optimize their individual patient as the center of
the surgical choice in management of the inguinal hernia. The text also
addresses important topics for the community and academic surgeon, such as
the training of residents in inguinal hernia and the importance in surgeon kept
outcome data. This book would not be possible without the help of each
author who has contributed his or her time and effort in the submission of the
individual chapters and the publishing team at Springer for their guidance
and direction in this project. Surgical Principles in Inguinal Hernia Repair
will be an invaluable resource to the practicing general and trauma surgeon
including residents and fellows in these areas. On behalf of my coeditor and
I, we hope you enjoy Surgical Principles in Inguinal Hernia Repair.
