When analyzing the historical and medical aspects of the organization of medical and social services for the elderly and senile people in Russia in the late XX — early XXI centuries not only obvious achievements in this sphere, but also a number of problems requiring solution were identified. The primary role in the delivery of medical care to geriatric patients is assigned to the primary health care sector. However the work of the geriatric service in the format of a single system for the provision of long-term medical and social care based on the continuity of patient management between differ- ent levels of the health care system and between the health and social protection services is not well organized. There is no clear coordination and interaction between health care and social protection institutions, functions of which include providing care to older citizens, and it significantly reduces the effectiveness of the provision of both medical and social services.

Liechtenstein procedure represents the most frequent technique used for surgical abdominal interventions. Although, it is a modern and inovative procedure, it still has a relative risk for complications. A number of 93 subjects were included in our research. We develop our study in General Surgery Department of County Emergency Hospital of Craiova, Romania between 1st July 2017-31th March 2018. From the total of 93 patients, 88% were men. Most of subjects had ages between 70 and 79 years old, were operated by Liechtenstein technique and they were coming from quite equal percent from rural and urban areas.The incidence for complications(seroma, hematoma, infection, abscess) was generally lower for the patients diagnosticated with Liechtenstein procedure comparing with the subjects operated by other technique. Liechtenstein procedureis recommended especially for its simplicity and efficiency, reproducibility and safety. It is very important to choose the perfect synthetic prosthetic material to have a good evolution of the disorder and a small recurrence rate.
