Purpose To examine the current evidence on the therapeutic role and outcomes of robotic
Transabdominal Preperitoneal Inguinal hernia repair (rTAPP) to better define its risk–benefit …

Importance Despite rapid adoption of the robotic platform for inguinal hernia repair in the
US, to date, no level I trials have ever compared robotic inguinal hernia repair to …

Background This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the effectiveness of robotic
surgery compared to laparoscopy or open surgery for inguinal (IHR) and ventral (VHR) …

Background The robotic approach to an inguinal hernia has not been compared head to
head with the open and laparoscopic techniques in randomized controlled trials …

Background Learning curves describe the rate of performance improvements according to
the surgeon's caseload, followed by a plateau where limited additional improvements are …

Purpose Many publications have focused on single-surgeon or single-center data,
comparing surgical approach in inguinal hernia repair. This study evaluated outcomes in …

Background Utilization of robotic-assisted inguinal hernia repair (IHR) has increased in
recent years, but randomized or prospective studies comparing outcomes and cost of …

Background We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta‐analysis of RHR's
efficiency and safety, in addition to comparison between open and laparoscopic techniques …

Background Robot-assisted transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (rTAPP-
IHR) is a safe and feasible approach for hernias of varying etiology. We aim to present a …

Purpose To evaluate and compare peri-operative outcomes through 30 days, including pain
and quality of life (QOL) through 3 months across three cohorts of inguinal hernia repair …
