Many techniques have been described for the repair of femoral hernia. The technique applying the principles of the tension-free method of McVay's Cooper ligament repair by covering all potential hernia sites in the myopectineal orifice with a mesh has also been described, but no report has yet been published with large number of cases and long follow-up period. We used this technique in 28 patients (19 females and 9 males) with femoral hernia. The average operating time was 40 min (range 25-75) and average follow-up period was 40 months (range 6-75). No postoperative infection or seroma was recorded. There was no recurrence at the time of writing. This technique seems to be a good alternative for the repair of femoral hernia and also for concurrent femoral hernia with inguinal hernia.
