A new method of hernioplasty for adult groin hernias centering on repair of the transversalis fascia was assessed by a questionnaire conducted every five years on adult patients who had received the above operation. The efficacy of this method was evaluated in terms of the postoperative quality of life and prevention of recurrence of groin hernias. Over the last 9 years, 834 adult patients with 921 groin hernias, including bilateral lesions, have undergone the above procedure and overall, favorable results were obtained, with only one case of recurrence (0.1 per cent) being reported. Contralateral herniation, which has been often reported following Bassini's or Hatakoshi's method, was found in only one of our patients although the number of patients who complained of pain in the operated region was comparatively high, being 51 cases or 11.4 per cent.
