Inguinal hernia repair throughout literature was mostly done with mesh attributing to the relative ease of the procedure. Complication of mesh insertion started to arise including seroma formation, infection and chronic pain. Therefore non mesh technique is being performed.

Application of the external oblique muscle apponeurosis in the form of an undetached strip has been established as a concept in tissue-based hernia repair.[Subwongcharoen S, et al 2002].Objective: Evaluating the outcome of performing non mesh inguinal hernia repair as a new technique regarding rate of recurrence, infection and seroma Methods: Case series study of thirty two patients presented with primary inguinal hernia to Cairo university Hospitals who was eligible to open hernia repair.
