Background: Abdominoplasties are a very common procedure that is geared toward improving the abdominal contour and restoring quality of life. Main candidates for surgery are postpartum patients and patients after massive weight lost results in excess skin. The high incidence of umbilical hernias in the general population raises the question of whether combining its repair with cosmetic abdominoplasties is a safe and effective procedure.

Diastasis recti (DR) is characterized by an abnormal separation between the rectus abdominis muscles. Traditional repair includes only plication; however, complications may arise in the presence of concurrent ventral hernias (VH). This study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of diastasis repair in a United Arab Emirates (UAE) population.

Diastasis recti (DR) is a common condition, especially in women after pregnancy, often associated with concomitant hernia defects and defined as a rupture of the midline and a separation of the rectus muscle more than 2 cm. Symptoms related to this are low back pain, urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse, as well as abdominal bulging and core instability. We analyzed clinical and functional outcomes after treatment of DR alone or associated with midline hernias in 219 patients who underwent a midline reconstruction using miSAR technique (minimally invasive stapled abdominal wall reconstruction).

Background: The surgical management of midline ventral hernias complicated by concomitant diastasis recti presents a significant clinical challenge. The Endoscopic Onlay Repair (ENDOR) offers a minimally invasive solution, effectively addressing both conditions. This study focuses on describing the adaptation of ENDOR to a robotic platform, termed R-ENDOR, aiming to report initial outcomes along with other established robotic surgical approaches.
