Biological vs Synthetic Mesh in Laparoendoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair - The BIOLAP Randomized Clinical Trial

STUDY:  Does the use of resorbable biological meshes reduce postoperative pain without increasing recurrence rates in laparoendoscopic inguinal hernia repair?

Conclusions and Relevance  Biological meshes did not reduce postoperative pain but were associated with significantly higher recurrence and seroma rates compared with synthetic meshes. These findings do not support the routine use of biological meshes in laparoendoscopic inguinal hernia repair.
