Comparison of single-incision totally extraperitoneal repair of inguinal hernia and conventional multi-port totally extraperitoneal repair: A retrospective study
SILS-TEP was safely performed without compromising surgical quality. It demonstrated a shorter operative time and equivalent clinical outcomes compared to three-port TEP. SILS-TEP may be a feasible and cosmetically superior alternative for inguinal hernia repair.
