About this trial
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided transversalis fascia plane block (TFP) and ilioinguinal (II) and iliohypogastric (IH) nerve block in the treatment of chronic post-herniorrhaphy inguinal pain (CPIP) refractory to conservative treatments. For this evaluation, a numerical rating scale (NRS) will be used before and after both interventions.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Complaints of inguinal pain >12 weeks post-herniorrhaphy surgery
