Abstract

The data of 2013 French National Databasis, last available data, show that the global number of cure is stable. But, ambulotary surgery is growing fast with 7,3% of cures in 2007 and 49,48% in 2013, reaching in some surgical centers 62,1% for laparoscopic unilateral cure. 89,6% of cures used mesh, whatever age of patients. Two thirds of unilateral cures use Lichtentein technique; conversely, two thirds of bilateral cures use laparoscopic way. The practice is accorded with guidelines.
