Laparoscopic TAPP to treat inguinal hernia. Is the robot preferable? A review and cohort-study on anatomical landmarks of robotic-assisted transabdominal preperitoneal groin hernia repair (r-TAPP).

In this review, the advantages of the robotic platform in rTAPP are presented and discussed. Against the background of the unchanged results of conventional TAPP for decades (approx. 10% chronic pain and approx.

Robotic hernia repair III. English version : Robotic incisional hernia repair with transversus abdominis release (r‑TAR). Video report and results of a cohort study.

The principle of targeted separation or weakening of individual components of the abdominal wall to relieve tension in the median line during major abdominal reconstruction has been known for over 30 years as anterior component separation (aCS) and is an established procedure. In search of alternatives with lower complication rates, posterior component separation (pCS) was developed; transversus abdominis release (TAR) is a nerve-sparing modification of pCS. With the ergonomic resources of robotics (e.

What makes the difference between the natural course of a remaining type B dissection after type A repair and a primary type B aortic dissection?

Objectives: To analyse the outcome and need for intervention [surgery or thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR)] in patients after surgery for remaining type B dissection after type A repair and primary type B aortic dissection.

Methods: Within a 10-year period, 247 patients with remaining type B after type A, and 112 patients with primary type B aortic dissection were analysed. We assessed the clinical outcome as well as the need for intervention (surgery or TEVAR) within the aortic arch and the thoracoabdominal aorta as well as risk factors.
