Comparison of short-term outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic transabdominal peritoneal repair for unilateral inguinal hernia: a propensity-score matched analysis.

Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery
PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic transabdominal peritoneal repair (TAPP) for unilateral inguinal hernia.

Cost analysis of training residents in robotic-assisted surgery.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Use of robotic-assisted surgery is increasing, and resident involvement may lead to higher costs. We investigated whether senior resident involvement in noncomplex robotic cholecystectomy (RC) and inguinal hernia (RIH) would take more t...

Robotic inguinal hernia repair: is the new Da Vinci single port platform providing any benefit?

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The utilization of the robot for inguinal hernia repairs has increased in the past years. The new Da Vinci Single Port (SP) system provides the benefits of single-incision procedures and might overcome the technical difficulties of previo...

The robot doesn't lie: real-life validation of robotic performance metrics.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Degree of resident participation in a case is often used as a surrogate marker for operative autonomy, an essential element of surgical resident training. Previous studies have demonstrated a considerable disagreement between the percepti...

Implementation of robot-assisted groin hernia repair diminishes the prospects of young surgeons' training: a nationwide register-based cohort study.

Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted groin hernia repair is becoming more popular in recent years but may remove operations from surgical trainees. We aimed to investigate the educational level of the surgeons who performed robot-assisted groin hernia repair and ...

Long-term results after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy of a simplified inguinal hernia prevention technique without artificial substance use.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
INTRODUCTION: Durable techniques that prevent postoperative inguinal hernia (IH) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) have not been established. This study evaluated the long-term efficacy of a postoperative IH prevention technique that ...

Robotic single-port surgery: Preliminary experience in general surgery.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: We aim to analyse the safety and feasibility of the DaVinci Single Port (SP) platform in general surgery.

Trends in Robot-Assisted Procedures for General Surgery in the Veterans Health Administration.

The Journal of surgical research
INTRODUCTION: Implementation of robot-assisted procedures is growing. Utilization within the country's largest healthcare network, the Veterans Health Administration, is unclear.

Laparoscopic versus robotic inguinal hernia repair: a single-center case-matched study.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Robotic inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) is becoming increasingly common and is the minimally invasive alternative to laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR). Thus far, there is little data directly comparing LIHR and RIHR. The purpose ...

Robot-Assisted General Surgery Procedures at the Veterans Health Administration: A Comparison of Surgical Techniques.

The Journal of surgical research
INTRODUCTION: The use of the robot in general surgery has exploded in the last decade. The Veterans Health Administration presents a unique opportunity to study differences between surgical approaches due to the ability to control for health system a...
