Brief Summary: Two hundred consecutive unilateral inguinal hernia patients will be included in the study. Patients will be recorded by measuring the distance between the pubic tubercle and the deep inguinal ring, the distance between the inguinal ligament and the internal oblique aponeurosis, the distance between the deep and superficial inguinal ring diameters and their anterior superior iliac spine. The contribution of these measures to the determination of the ideal mesh size will be analyzed.
Detailed Description: This prospective study includes 200 consecutive male patients who underwent unilateral open inguinal hernia repair since March 2020. Under-18 hernias, complicated hernias, recurrent hernias, and those with laparoscopic hernia repair will be excluded. Initially, the distance between the pubic tubercle and the medial edge of the deep inguinal ring will be measured. Next, the distance between the inner edge of the inguinal ligament and the upper level of the internal oblique aponeurosis will be measured at the Hesselbach triangle. Hesselbach triangle area will be calculated. The diameter of the superficial and deep inguinal ring and their spina iliaca anterior superior (SIAS) distance will be measured. The contribution of these measures to the determination of the ideal mesh size will be analyzed.
