The forecast for the repair of inguinal hernia in Germany, measured in day cases, remains relatively stable from 2024 to 2028, with only a slight decline anticipated in 2027 and 2028. The data shows a consistent volume of 560 day cases annually from 2024 to 2026, before marginally decreasing to 559 in 2027 and 2028.
