Abstract
The treatment of only the symptomatic inguinal hernia has not significantly increased the incidence of MIH. This evidence-based change of practice has avoided 152 operations in 264 patients. Presentation with incarceration and age at presentation have no significant impact on the incidence of MIH. Left-sided presentation has a statistically significant high incidence of MIH.
