ABSTRACT
The treatment of inguinal hernias with open and minimally invasive procedures has reached a high standard in terms of outcome over the past 30 years. However, there is still need for further improvement, mainly in terms of reduction of postoperative seroma, chronic pain, and recurrence. This video article presents the endoscopic anatomy of the groin with regard to robotic transabdominal preperitoneal patch plasty (rTAPP) and illustrates the surgical steps of rTAPP with respective video sequences. The results of a cohort study of 302 consecutive hernias operated by rTAPP are presented and discussed in light of the added value of the robotic technique, including advantages for surgical training. rTAPP is the natural evolution of conventional TAPP and has the potential to become a new standard as equipment availability increases and material costs decrease. Future studies will also have to refine the multifaceted added value of rTAPP with new parameters.
