The authors describe a technique of totally preperitoneal videoscopic inguinal hernia repair. This method allows, by cleavages, to obtain a preperitoneal space where can be individualised anatomical structures of the inguinofemoral area: pubis, pectineal ligament of Cooper, epigastric vessels. After squelettisation of the elements of the cord by release of the hernial bag, installation of a not fixed prosthesis largely covers the hernial rings.
