Dissecting free and intact hernia sac off the spermatic cord preparing it for ligation during herniotomy and orchiopexy in children is time consuming and it dose not increase the incidence of recurrence as far as the deep ring is narrowed with one or two stitches so it introduce the tip of the little finger only.
Also, dissection deep in the deep ring has the advantage of giving length to the spermatic cord when operating on orchiopexy.
Dissection deep in the deep ring will create an inflammatory process with its associated oedema which last about 48 hours. During this time, the deep ring is closed by the oedema and an underlying pavementation of the peritoneum at the deep ring accomplished.
