Purpose — study in comparative aspect the quality of life parameters of patients after inguinal hernias plastics with the application of endoscopic methods. Material and methods. The quality of life parameters obtained by using the Russian version of the international questionnaire EuroQol Index (EQ-5D) and the visual analogue scale of the pain syndrome in 41 male patients after treatment of primary unilateral uncomplicated inguinal hernias in the surgical department of the Surgut City Clinical Hospital by transabdominal preperitonealhernioplasty (TAPP) (25 patients) and total extraperitonealhernioplasty (TEP) (16 patients). Evaluation was carried out in the early (first, third day) period and 12 months after hernioplasty. Results. Analysis the results of treatment of 41 patients with inguinal hernia by TAPP and TEP methods showed insignificant, a few complications and no recurrence of disease after hernioplasty. At the same time, in the early postoperative period (the first, third day post surgery), all patients had health problems different severity estimated by the scales EQ-5D questionnaire. The pain on the first postoperative day, accompanied by a restriction of mobility, self-service, the inability to perform daily activities, was consisted in undervaluation of their health during this period. The noted pain syndrome in those operated by the TAPP method was more significant. As early as the third day, the intensity of pain decreased and was recorded, respectively, as mild and light. The EQ-5D index, which is an integral indicator of the questionnaire in patients underwent the TAPP, was also lower than after TEP, thus reflecting a higher subjective assessment their quality of life during this period (median, upper and lower quartiles for quality measures life of patients after hernioplasty by TAPP and TEP methods, respectively, 0.37 (0.3; 0.42) and 0.46 (0.35; 0.6)). Determined after 12 months, the indices indicated an improvement the quality of life and indistinction in their values in operated by TAPP and TEP (0.52 (0.4; 0.58) and 0.58 (0.45; 0.65), respectively). Conclusion. Restricted mobility, self-care, everyday activities, anxiety, pain and discomfort in the field of intervention were reflected in the undervaluation of patients’ health by the scales EQ-5D questionnaire, especially in the early postoperative period.
