Inguinal hernia repair is one of the few elective operations every surgical unit performs in volume, which makes it a reliable base for a randomised or comparative MS thesis. The sample titles compare Lichtenstein mesh repair with TEP and TAPP, test local against spinal anaesthesia, look at self-gripping versus sutured mesh and measure chronic postoperative groin pain. Emergency work on obstructed and strangulated hernia adds an observational option.
Before choosing a laparoscopic comparison, check that your unit does enough TEP or TAPP cases and that the surgeons' learning curve will not distort results. Pain outcomes need standard scoring times and a blinded assessor. Chronic pain and recurrence only become visible after several months, so plan outpatient review and telephone follow-up from the start.

4Tips for a Hernia & Abdominal Wall thesis
- Record pain on a visual analogue scale at fixed postoperative intervals, and define chronic postoperative inguinal pain clearly, conventionally as pain persisting beyond three months after surgery.
- Classify each hernia with a recognised system such as the Nyhus or EHS classification, so groups are comparable and results can be read against published series.
- If studying testicular blood flow, perform colour Doppler before surgery and at a fixed postoperative visit, using the same sonologist and machine settings each time.
