Introduction: Incisional hernias can complicate up to 25% of laparotomies, and successful repair remains a significant clinical challenge for surgeons. Recently, the surgical technique of ventral hernia repair (eTEP-RS) has been introduced. The method was presented relatively recently and continues to evolve. The use of a robotic platform in eTEP-RS resulted in a significant improvement in ergonomics. Therefore, the questions arise as to whether the laparoscopic technique might still be feasible for such long procedures. The objective of this study is to present our early results in the treatment of patients with incisional ventral hernias using eTEP-RS and to discuss key technical aspects. Patients and methods: A prospective case-controlled study was conducted for all incisional ventral hernia patients (hernia orifice between 4 and 10 cm) who underwent eTEP-RS between March 2019 and December 2021. Demographic data were recorded; and perioperative and postoperative results were analyzed. Results: We performed 34 eTEP-RS procedures. The mean duration of the surgery was 211 min (145–295). The mean width of the defect was 6.8 cm and the defect area was 42.5 cm2. The mean mesh size was 498 cm2 (270–625). After an average follow-up of 16 months (2–30), there was no recurrence or major complication. Conclusions: The eTEP-RS is a safe alternative to open ventral hernia repair in selected cases and allows for the placement of a large piece of mesh in accordance with current recommendations, even in non-robotic centers. Excellent knowledge of the detailed anatomy of the abdominal wall is essential for safe and effective hernia repair. Compliance with certain rules of the laparoscopic eTEP-RS facilitates improved ergonomics for this procedure even in non-robotic centers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
