Various surgical procedures are in vogue since ancient times for their repair. Mesh repair is one of the promising surgical techniques though it is reported with certain complications like foreign body reaction, pain, fistula formation, infection, migration, shrinkage, and recurrence etc. Traditional __ampersandsignldquo;heavyweight__ampersandsignrdquo; meshes (like Prolene __ampersandsignreg;) are now a day__ampersandsignrsquo;s being replaced by partially absorbable lightweight meshes, that are less dense, apparently more physiological in their flexibility, and associated with less acute and chronic postoperative pain and discomfort. Objective: The present study was formulated to study the feasibility and efficacy of ULTRAPRO__ampersandsignreg; mesh in Inguinal Hernia Repair. We also tried to study postoperative complications with the use of Ultrapro__ampersandsignreg; Mesh. Methods: A total of 90 cases of hernias were included in the study after obtaining the written consent of the patients. Various parameters were noted down. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were followed. Operative technique and mesh implantation was performed. Results: 62.00% were right-sided hernias. Direct hernias were more common (48.89%) than indirect hernias (42.22%). The commonest co-morbidity found was hypertension in about 22.22% of patients. The pain was the commonest (23.33%) acute postoperative complication followed by tightness, serosa and cord oedema. Conclusion: Type I and III are more common Nyhus type of hernia. Marginally advantageous over heavyweight mesh eg: Prolene, concerning early postoperative complications. Wound hematoma and Infection were absent with the use of Ultrapro__ampersandsignreg; mesh. Chronic pain is less commonly seen with Ultrapro__ampersandsignreg; mesh as compared to other lightweight mesh. No recurrence was seen during the study period.&#13;
