ABSTRACT Objectives: described by Dr. Jorge Daes, principles of the enhanced view totally
extraperitoneal (eTEP) has been widely used in the armamentarium of ventral hernia repair …

Purpose While robotic-assisted hernia repair has increased the popularity of minimally
invasive hernia surgery, selecting between the types of approaches is a challenge for both …

Purpose The enhanced view totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) concept first applied to inguinal
hernias has become an important tool in the armamentarium of ventral hernia repair. The …

Purpose Robotic retromuscular abdominal wall repair (RAWR) for ventral hernias can be
performed transabdominal or extraperitoneal by using an enhanced view totally …

Minimally invasive extended totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) technique is revolutionising
ventral hernia repairs. Robotic-assisted eTEP has been gaining popularity due to better …

Methods: We performed robot-assisted laparoscopic TAPP ventral hernia repairs in 3
patients in the spring of 2015. Demographic information and defect size were measured …

Background The enhanced (or extended) view total extraperitoneal (TEP) access that was
initially described for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair has been applied to first …

Introduction Since the first laparoscopic incisional hernia repair, several minimally invasive
procedures have been developed in abdominal wall repair. In 2017, the extended totally …

Background: Lateral incisional hernias arise between the linea alba and the posterior
paraspinal muscles. Anatomical boundaries contain various topographic variations, such as …

Background The optimal repair of ventral hernia remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate
the results after robotic-assisted laparoscopic transabdominal repair with retrorectus mesh …
