Introduction: Inguinal hernia is a more frequent problem in male infants with an increased incidence in twin ones. Prematurity is considered as a risk factor. During open surgery of hernia under general anesthesia, there is a high incidence of apnea especially in the preterm infants. Caudal anesthesia could been a more effective approach for induction of anesthesia and analgesia. Case presentation: Here, we presented three two-months-old infants (3.5-3.9 kg) for inguinal hernia repair, simultaneously who were born at 35 weeks’ gestation al age. They were undergone bilateral inguinal hernia repair with single shot awake caudal anaesthesia. Conclusion: Although herrniorraphy is a common procedure in preterm infants, the induction of simultaneous caudal anesthesia for this procedure is rare event. On the other hand, the complications of anestethic techniques such as apnea are important.Indeed, triple infants with based same genetic background didn’t show any undesirable events after anaesthesia.
