Background:  Inguinal hernia, a common surgical problem, requires treatment to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes. The debate continues as to whether laparoscopic or open repair techniques are superior. This study assesses the success rates of laparoscopic and open inguinal hernia repairs in Vidarbha, Maharashtra. Methods: The 100 Vidarbha, Maharashtra  people who needed laparoscopic or open inguinal hernia repair were the subject of a retrospective study. Demographic information, recurrence rates, complications, postoperative pain scores, and duration of hospital stay were related between the two groups. Statistical study was used to determine the significance of the observed differences. Results: The laparoscopic (10%) and open (15%) repair groups had comparable recurrence rates. By comparing the two methods for hernia prevention yielded comparable less pain than open method results. The rate of complications in the laparoscopic group was 8%, while in the open repair group, it was 12% Laparoscopic procedures were associated with shorter hospital stays than open procedures. Statistical analysis demonstrated the importance of these results. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that both laparoscopic and open hernia repairs are equally effective at reducing the risk of recurrence and causing roughly the same level of postoperative discomfort. Laparoscopic surgery has the advantage of reducing the duration of hospital stays. Resources, surgeon experience, and patient characteristics should be considered when deciding between laparoscopic and open repair. It is suggested that additional research be conducted to substantiate and assess the long-term effects of these findings.
