Of the 90 patients who underwent unilateral hernia repair, 70 were completely followed-up for 24 months, 36 (81.81%) patients with TEP and 34 (73.91%) with TAPP. Regarding the main outcome there was no recurrence of the hernia at two years follow-up.There were two cases of bleeding in the TAPP group;both were managed by laparoscopic sealing of the damaged vessels, 8 cases of post-operative edema of testis in TAPP and 3 cases in TEP. Regarding thesubcutaneous emphysema there were 16 cases in TAPP and 3 cases in TEP.CONCLUSIONS:
