Patient characteristics are recorded before surgery. The adult patients with inguinal hernia are randomized into endoscopic totally extraperitoneal hernioplasty (TEP) or open Lichtenstein hernioplasty. Pain reaction to surgery and return to work are asked many times using questionnaire and pain diary (pain scores from 1h to 30 days after surgery). Surgical complications and use of pain killers are carefully recorded. Clinical examination is performed if necessary.
