A hernia is a protrusion of a tissue, structure or part of a organ through the muscular tissue or the membrane by which it is normally contained. Most frequently hernial deffect is seen in anterior abdominal wall. Usually contents of hernial sac are abdominal organs or portion of organs. Hernia is classified according to the operating methods combining with type and grading of hernia. Recent surgical treatment of hernia can be divided in to 3 major groups: 1) Hernioplasty with double breasting techniques ( Bassini, McVay, Schouldice, Halsted). 2) Hernioplasty using tension free techniques (Lichtenstein, Gilbert-Rutkow). 3) Laparoscopic hernioplasty. One day surgery is a diagnostic and operative procedure in hospitalized patients in a single day, without night stay in hospital.

The clinical effect from the treatment of 48 patients with carsil and 24 patients with legalon is studied. The patients were subdivided into three groups in the base of the clinical, laboratory-chemical and instrumental examination: light hepatic lesions--hepatic steatosis, chronic persisting hepatitis (ChPH), post-hepatitis states, chronic active hepatitis (ChAN) and cirrhosis of the liver (CL). Both preparations were administered 3 three times, 2 tablets daily for 3 months. The results obtained revealed that the bioflavonoid preparation carsil did not much differ in its clinical effect from the preparation legalon. The preparations carsil and legalon had a good effect, but not with statistical significance, on the subjective symptoms--pain, sense of heaviness and upper dyspeptic syndrome in the patients studied. Both preparations had a good effect on the biochemical indices: thymol test, SGOT, gamma-globulins, immunoglobulin G, blood bilirubin. The three month administration of carsil and legalon did not essentially change the histological findings in liver. The preparations carsil and legalon are indicated in light and moderate hepatic affections--hepatic steatosis, ChPH, post-hepatitis states. No contraindications have been reported for the administration of those preparations even in advanced hepatic disorders where they could be included as "basis" therapy.
