BACKGROUND: Regional anesthetic nerve blocks are widely used in the treatment of pain after outpatient surgery to reduce opioid consumption. Erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a recently described technique with promising results in different scenar...
After 30 years of development, laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) has become the main method for treating adult inguinal hernia. LIHR is more standardized, the approach of single-port laparoscopic hernioplasty, the advantages of robotic ingui...
In this review, the advantages of the robotic platform in rTAPP are presented and discussed. Against the background of the unchanged results of conventional TAPP for decades (approx. 10% chronic pain and approx. 3.5% recurrence), a new anatomy-guided...
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the utility of robot-assisted laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair (R-TAPP) of postprostatectomy inguinal hernia (PIH) in patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
Inguinal hernia is a recognized complication of radical prostatectomy. Previous hernia repair, wound infection, midline incision, low BMI, and preexisting or subclinical hernia contribute to the risk of inguinal hernia following radical prostatectomy...

Herein we present simple methods to prevent postoperative inguinal hernia (IH) after extraperitoneal and transperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Among 275 patients who underwent RARP between January 2014 and December 2016 at our ...
To explore the clinical value of robot-assisted laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair. We performed a retrospective review of 23 consecutive patients who underwent robotic inguinal hernia repair from January 2018 t...
