Abstract    Among the inguinal hernia patients in China, the proportion of elderly patients is relatively large. How to make the ambulatory surgery of elderly inguinal hernia patients be safe and convenient is a problem that surgeons have to face. Firstly, case screening is very important. For elderly patients with severe internal diseases, evaluation and screening must be performed before surgery to establish safety standards. Patients who do not accord with the safety standards for ambulatory surgery should not be scheduled for ambulatory surgery; Secondly, selection of the anesthesia and surgical methods should have as less as possible impact for the patients, so as to facilitate rapid recovery after surgery. Lastly, postoperative management is also very important. Surgeons should pay attention to observing the change of the postoperative condition. Complete follow-up after discharge and smooth communication and feedback channels can help surgeons to know and handle in a timely manner in the emergency event.
