Thanks for the followup.

I agree agree with imaging. It will help determine if there is a recurrence, fluid collection, or if the mesh has folded in itself.

CT scan is not a good study to evaluate this. It doesn’t show the mesh separate from everything else. MRI pelvis without contrast is a better option and what I use for this problem.

Neeve pain is uncommon with laparoscopic hernia repair. But it is possible. Depends on the technique used to repair.

PS, I will try to repost your initial post on this thread.
