NCT ID NCT07386067
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed trial tested a new mesh design for open inguinal hernia repair in 100 men with primary inguinal hernia. The new mesh is cut to fit the posterior wall of the inguinal canal and covered with a sheath to avoid nerve contact. The main goal was to see if it reduces hernia recurrence and complications.
