Popis:	Aim In this video, the authors provide an educational demonstration on the use of robotic surgery in management of two patients with complicated and recurrent inguinal hernias. The two patients demonstrated in these videos show the benefits of use of robotics in the approach to a patient with a recurrent hernia after previous open repair with plug and patch method as well as repair in a very obese patient with large hernias causing obstruction of the left ureter. Material and Methods N/a Results N/a Conclusions Robotic surgery is an emerging technology in surgery and can be a useful modality in treating patients with complex and recurrent inguinal hernias. Furthermore, the visualization in these complex cases can be helpful in identifying the important structures during dissection. Regardless of technique, the two videos presented demonstrate a complex dissection which may be needed when repairing recurrent or very large inguinal hernias.
