Overview

Reinforcement of the anterior wall of the inguinal canal and tightening of the external inguinal ring was first discovered by Stromayr in 1559. In 1871, new use of carbolized catgut ligature was developed by Marcy to treat inguinal hernia. Twisted and suture-transfixed the peritoneal sac in the lateral muscles through the external ring was developed by Kocher to treat inguinal hernia.Laparoscopic approaches first used to treat inguinal hernias in 1992.There is a limited information about the historical perspective of testicular tumors. Leydig cells were first discovered by Franz Leydig who was a German anatomist in 1870.
