--203 cases of congenital inguinal hernia operated with Mitchell-Banks technique have been studied. Just over half the patients were less than 1-year old; 48% were males; right inguinal hernia (53%) predominated, while 13% presented bilateral hernia. Post-operative hospitalization was 1-3 days in 73% of cases. Fever was observed in 86% of the children but it never lasted more than 2 days. 81 patients presented scrotal haematoma. Mortality was nil. Long-term follow-up showed that only 1% had suffered a recurrence. As a result of all these advantages and the low hospitalization (one day surgery), the technique is recommended for the treatment of infant inguinal hernia.
