June is National Hernia Awareness Month, and CHRISTUS Health is highlighting robotic technology for noninvasive repairs.

The researchers developed a new model to project the performance of different mesh types for patients undergoing ventral hernia repair (VHR). Their findings are published in the Journal of the ...

Robotic hernia surgery, a complex kind of laparoscopic repair, allows the physician to use robotic arms for precise control. In difficult hernia situations, this approach allows more accuracy ...

Conclusion: we consider that image inversion artifice is a simple and reproducible feature in robotic ventral hernia repair. Through a step-by-step guide, this report enables the creation of an ...

For an abdominal wall hernia repair, also known as a ventral hernia repair, the most common surgical approaches have been laparoscopic and open techniques. But a new approach for repairing hernias has ...

The current data suggests that robotic surgery may not yield significant clinical benefits for ventral hernia repair, raising questions about its effectiveness in this context. Advantages and ...

Cutting edge technology may come with downsides. For an abdominal wall hernia repair, also known as a ventral hernia repair, the most common surgical approaches have been laparoscopic and open ...

Paper cited: “Surgical Approach and Long-Term Recurrence After Ventral Hernia Repair,” JAMA Surgery. DOI: 10.1001/jamasurg.2024.1696 ...

For example: > Groin hernias: Robotic tools make it easier to place the mesh (a common material used to reinforce weak areas) securely and precisely. > Ventral and incisional hernias: For these ...

The Iskandar Complex Hernia Center, under the leadership of Dr. Mazen Iskandar, is pushing the boundaries of hernia surgery with the adoption of a highly advanced, minimally invasive technique ...

Surgical Complications Several complications are associated with ventral hernia repair surgery. The typical ones, which can occur after any type of surgery, include bruising, bleeding, and infection.

Momentis Surgical’s Anovo robotic surgical platform has secured 510(k) clearance from the US FDA for use in single-site, abdominal access ventral hernia repair. The device features humanoid ...
