The authors present a group of 21 patients treated with the method of Lichtenstein with the use of polypropylene mesh Prolen. They used the method of an "inlay" mesh for recurrent groin and epigastric hernias, mostly by men. The men:women ratio was 19:2. They emphasise better healing, early recovery to work and almost no wound infection by use of this method.
