AB  - Recent  literature  suggests  that  patients  who  are  asymptomatic  or  "minimally  symptomatic"  may  be  managed  without  surgical  intervention.All  symptomatic  inguinal  hernias  (pain,  neurologic  symptoms)  should  be  repaired  unless  a  specific  contraindication  exists.Inguinal  hernias  that  are  incarcerated  and  are  reduced  in  a  timely  fashion  should  be  repaired  on  an  urgent  basis.Hernias  that  are  unable  to  be  reduced  should  be  treated  as  a  surgical  emergency  and  repaired  expeditiously.
