Choice of Surgical Technique in Groin Hernia Surgery Among Residents in Senegal: Experience and Influencing Factors
This study highlights a preference for open hernia repair techniques among residents in Senegal, particularly the Bassini and Lichtenstein techniques, due to cost-effectiveness and accessibility. Limited training and resources constrain the adoption of minimally invasive techniques, underscoring the need for enhanced access to resources and training to align with global standards.
