Abstract: Inguinodynia is persistence of pain for more than 3 months after inguinal hernia operation. Chronic pain may be associated with hyperesthesia or hypoesthesia. This pain may be mild, moderate or severe. Inguinodynia may even effect quality of life. Pain may resolve on its own or after conservative treatment. Sometimes it persists and conservative methods fail then various other modalities of treatment are considered including re-exploration and neurectomy. We performed all 396 inguinal hernia repair by a modified Lichtenstein tension-free procedure. In our series of 396 cases inguinodynia happened only in 3 cases, a real low incidence. Some researchers have reported the incidence of inguinodynia as high as 19 percent 1 year after operation. No case required re-exploration, removal of mesh or neurectomy in our series.

The ultrasound guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a recent block described for various surgeries for postoperative analgesia. ESP block has effect on both visceral and somatic pain; therefore, its use in laparoscopic cholecystectomy and other abdominal surgeries can be advantageous. We describe successful ESP block application in three different cases for postoperative pain. Two patient were operated on using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and laparoscopic cholecystectomy and one patient was operated on using laparoscopic cholecystectomy together with the inguinal hernia operation.
