Objective:General surgery specialty training in the UK takes 6 years and allows trainees to take time out of training. Studies from the USA have highlighted an increasing trend for taking time out of surgical training for research. This study aimed t...

Purpose
Little is known regarding the magnitude and timing of the risk of VTE following inguinal hernia surgery. We aimed to determine the absolute and relative rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following planned inguinal hernia repair.
