Summary/Abstract: The Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) and Total Extraperitoneal (TEP) methods of inguinal hernia repair are well known throughout the world. The idea of combining these methods with single incision endoscopic surgery is exciting but poses important questions regarding the level of technical difficulties, learning curve and instrumentation currently available. In this article we review the solutions currently available to the obstacles that hinder the single incision endoscopic approach to TAPP and TEP inguinal hernia from becoming widely accepted.
