Aim: To reveal the relationships between patient findings and tissue resection in elderly patients. Materials and methods: Between September 2020 and September 2022 three hundred eighty four patients over the age of 60 who were operated with the diagnosis of groin hernia were retrospectively analyzed. Gender, age, height, weight and body mass index value, groin and inguinal hernia types, hernia sides, primary or recurrent cases, hernia sac content, incarceration, tissue necrosis and resection presence, and accompanying pathologies were recorded. These findings were compared and evaluated in order to determine the relationships between patient findings and tissue resection, and the findings at risk for tissue resection. Results: Of the patients in the study, 352 (91.7%) were male and 32 (8.3%) were female. The mean age, height, weight and BMI were 67.48 +/- 5.893 years, 169.27 +/- 6.113 cm, 73.28 +/- 7.878 kg and 25,566 +/- 2.3518 kg/m2, respectively. There were 369 inguinal, 15 femoral, 285 indirect, 84 direct, 312 primary, and 72 recurrent hernias. Incarceration was present in 65 (16.9%) patients, 19 (4.9%) of these patients underwent resection due to tissue necrosis (twelve omentum and seven small intestine). Tissue resection was 3.1% in male, 25% in female, 4.3% in inguinal, 20% in femoral, 5.6% in indirect, 0% in direct, 3.5% in primary and 11.1% in recurrent hernias. Tissue resections were significantly higher in females, femoral hernias, indirect inguinal hernias and recurrent cases (p<0.05). Conclusions: We can say that female gender, femoral, indirect and recurrent hernias are important risk factors for tissue resection in elderly patients.
