Objective To prove Inguinal mesh hernioplasty under L/A is safe and acceptable. Helps with post-operative pain and enables rapid recovery as a day case. Method All patients who underwent inguinal hernia repair under local anaesthesia were retrospectively analysed in our hospital between July 2014- July 2017. Clinical judgement was used for inclusion and exclusion parameters. Results From July 2014- July 2017, 260 patients were included in study who underwent Inguinal mesh hernioplasty under L/A. ASA grade for all patients ranged between I-III. The mean age was 37 (20-65). Intraoperatively (9.1) 3.5% patients had problems such as pain, hypotension or sweating. About (86.3%) 224 patients were discharged home the same day and remaining stayed overnight for less than 24 hours. Hematoma was seen in 5 (1.92%) patients, Urinary retention in 2 (0.7%) patients, Wound infection seen in 24(9.2%) patients, Readmission in 10 (3.8%) patients.
