Abstract
A prosthetic element for the treatment of an inguinal hernia by celloscopy is disclosed, comprising an elongate and flexible binding member, and three leaves which are linked to one another by the binding member, each leaf extending away from the binding member, the leaves being made of a biocompatable material which is sufficiently lacunar or porous to support in vivo a tissue implantation or growth, and sufficiently flexible to be folded back on itself and unfolded, one of the leaves having a cutting therethrough culminating in a hole, the leaf being adapted to tightly enclose the spermatic cord after its passage through the hole.
