Common Surgical techniques are
- Tension free Sutureless - Trabucco (85%)
- Tension free Non Sutureless – Lichtenstein (15%)
Common anesthesiological strategies are fundamentalally two:
- Local anesthesia - peripheral regional native place (93%)
- Spinal anesthesia - general Anesthesia (7%)
In nearly the totality of the cases it was used local and/or peripheral anesthesia,
