Observed the incidence of postoperative effusion, infection, sinus formation, skin flap necrosis and hernia recurrence. Results All patients were restored after operation 8 days. Followed-up 1.5 -10.0 years,there was no incision effusion, infection,skin flap necrosis in all cases. No relapse happened on the operated side and 5 cases of inguinal hernia occurred on the non-operated side.
