Systematic review evaluates minimally invasive surgery benefits in reducing postoperative pain and recovery time after inguinal hernia repair.

Minimally invasive surgery significantly reduces postoperative pain and recovery time compared to traditional techniques.
Data showed shorter hospital stays by about 0.6 days and less pain post-operation, enhancing patient satisfaction.
Robotic-assisted surgery demonstrated lower recurrence rates but at higher costs, necessitating careful evaluation of its use.
Overall, minimally invasive approaches present promising outcomes, with future studies focusing on training and accessibility.

Lim et al. (2025) studied this question.
