Method: A Prospective observational study of Laparoscopic Repair of Inguinal Hernia by using N-Butyl Cyanoacrylate Glue for mesh fixation without tackers was conducted on 50 patients with Inguinal hernia admitted in Department of General Surgery, M.G.M Medical College and M.Y Hospital Indore (M.P.) during December 2017 to February 2019.Result: There were very few procedure related complications: hematoma formation 2 (4%), wound infection 1 (2%), inguinal hernia recurrence 1 (2%), with significant reduction in postoperative pain and no incidence of chronic pain (beyond 6 months of surgery) Conclusion: This prospective study shows that the use of N-butyl cyanoacrylate glue as an alternative to tacks for mesh fixation in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is extremely effective in overcoming the common complication of 'Chronic Inguinal Pain' associated with the use of tacks.
