Introduction: Though many newer techniques are available for inguinal hernia repair, still tissue repair is the commonest technique done by junior residents. The aim of this study was to compare feasibility and recurrence rate after Shouldice repair and Bassini’s repair. A Comparative study done on 100 patients of inguinal hernia. This study was carried out in our hospital by department of surgery at S. R. T. R. Medical College Ambajogai. Patients selected in this study were operated for two different hernia repairs. The Bassini’s repair or Shouldice repair depending upon the condition of the fascia transversalis intraoperative. After surgery all patients were monitored for pain, bleeding, wound infection and recurrence. It was found that Patient who were underwent shouldice repair complained moderate pain in Bassini’s repair than shouldice repair. Recurrence of hernia was noted in 08 (16%) patients of Bassini’s repair and 2(4%) patients of shouldice repair. So we concluded that shouldice hernia repair provide best chance of non-recurrence regardless of anatomical type of hernia.
