Axon Loss and Collagen Deposition Confirms Compression Neuropathy in the Ilioinguinal Nerve Resected From Primary Inguinal Herniorrhaphy Patients
In patients with primary inguinal hernias, the exposure of the ilioinguinal nerve within the canal segment can be associated with moderate to severe axon loss and increased fascicular areas due to collagen fibrosis, consistent with compression neuropathy.
