BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a risk factor for inguinal hernia (IH). Furthermore, in patients who have undergone RARP, the fibrotic scar tissue in the RARP area limits preperitoneal dissection. This study aimed to evalua...
After proximal gastrectomy, valvuloplastic esophagogastrostomy by double-flap technique could be the ideal reconstruction to prevent gastroesophageal reflux. However, it is demanding procedure in laparoscopic surgery. In this video, we demonstrate a ...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted ventral hernia repair has shown itself to be feasible and safe in abdominal wall surgery. Presently, the ports are placed laterally to meet the distance from the fascial defect. The aim of our study is to report our experie...
