Robotic ventral hernia repair is safe and effective, enabling minimally invasive treatment for complex cases. This study shows high success rates with extraperitoneal mesh placement in 98% of procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Robotics
  • Abdominal Wall Reconstruction

Background:

  • Robotic surgery is increasingly utilized for hernia repair, particularly with extraperitoneal mesh placement.
  • Advancements in robotic techniques offer new approaches to ventral hernia repair.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of robotic ventral hernia repair.
  • To assess the outcomes of extraperitoneal mesh placement in a series of patients.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 50 patients undergoing robotic ventral hernia repair (May 2019 - Nov 2020).
  • Procedures included extraperitoneal mesh implantation (retromuscular or preperitoneal) and transperitoneal approaches.
  • Various robotic techniques such as robotic enhanced view total extraperitoneal plasty (r-eTEP) and robotic ventral TAPP (r-vTAPP) were employed.

Main Results:

  • Complete hernia closure was achieved in all cases.
  • Extraperitoneal mesh placement was successful in 98% of ventral procedures.
  • The complication rate was 12%, with a reintervention rate of 4%.

Conclusions:

  • Robotic surgery provides a safe and effective method for treating ventral hernias, including complex cases.
  • Minimally invasive techniques with extraperitoneal mesh placement are feasible and successful.
