Study Summary

This study is evaluating the management of chronic post-operative inguinal hernia pain and the impact of hernia mesh removal after previous minimally invasive inguinal hernia repairs. The study aims are to evaluate the change in chronic (\>6 months), nociceptive, postoperative inguinal pain after mesh removal compared to no mesh removal in patients who have previously undergone minimally invasive inguinal hernia repair with pre-peritoneal mesh.

Primary Outcome

NRS-11 is a validated, 11-point scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable) and is commonly used to measure Chronic Post-operative Inguinal Pain (CPIP). NRS-11 categorizes pain as none \[0\], mild \[1-3\], moderate \[4-6\], and severe \[7-10\]. Patients will be asked to select the single number that best represents their groin pain intensity when moving from a supine to standing position.
