Long term inguinal pain comparing TEP to Lichtenstein repair: the TEPLICH RCT 8 years follow-up
RCTs, comparing TEP to Lichtenstein repair with follow-up ≥ 5 years regarding CPIP are sparse with conflicting data. In this study, low frequencies of CPIP present at 3 years seem to persist at 8 years. Recurrences occured within the first 3 years. Patients need to be informed of the risk of long-term CPIP.
