Anatomical Study of Nerves of the inguinal region in the adult human cadavers

Dr Geeta G N, Dr Suresh Bidarkotimath

Abstract :

Studies show that recurrences range from 0.5 – 8% following primary herniorrhaphy and 4 –21% following a repair of recurrent hernia.(Bailey and Love’s, 24th Ed).  If meticulous care is not taken towards identifying the nerves in the region, it is likely that the patient will report back to the surgeon with agonizing pain in the nerve territory soon after the surgery. The neuropathic pain after inguinal hernia repair is usually due to a neuroma of ilioinguinal, iliohypogastric or genitofemoral nerve. (Ducic I, Dellon AL, 2004).

After observing these facts about the inguinal hernia it was planned to study the inguinal region by dissecting adult human cadavers and to compare few anthropometric parameters between patients with inguinal hernia and the normal adult population, so as to look for any correlation between the parameters studied and the development of inguinal hernia
