    I am not sure I can attend given the time difference, but I would have few questions:
    1) how come most doctors talk about a “hole” rather than a weakening when speaking of direct hernias?
    2) why is there little consensus on watchful waiting? This also means that the advised treatment changes depending on the doctor…
    3) It is often quoted that an hernia can only get worse: is this based on the number of people on watchful waiting that eventually seek surgery?
    4) How will treatment change in the next 5 to 10 years? (I always wonder what technology might bring along in time)

    I would have asked these questions before but the web site was not reachable from Europe for many days somehow…
