Purpose: Over the last decade, there has been a rapid rise in the development and refinement of abdominal wall repair (AWR) techniques. Numerous cadaveric AWR training courses have been set up with the goal of helping practicing surgeons learn and incorporate them into their surgical repertoire. Some maybe excellent but their quality and consistency are unknown.

Ventral incisional hernias are common indications for elective repair and frequently complicated by recurrence. Surgical meshes, which may be synthetic, bio-synthetic, or biological, decrease recurrence and, resultingly, their use has become standard. While most patients are greatly benefited, mesh represents a permanently implanted foreign body.

Background: In the era of minimally invasive surgery, it is clear that a robust simulation model is required for the training of surgeons in advanced abdominal wall reconstruction. The purpose of this experimentation was to evaluate whether a porcine model could be used to teach advanced minimally invasive abdominal wall dissection techniques to novice surgeons. Secondary objectives included: time to completion, identification of various anatomical landmarks, to note the difference in porcine and human models and finally, the ability to dock a Da Vinci Xi robotic platform on the porcine model.

Non-midline abdominal wall hernias present unique anatomic challenges, making repair more complex. The constraints of the peritoneal cavity, pelvis, and costal margin limit the utility of intraperitoneal mesh repair, and extra-peritoneal repairs have traditionally been performed using open techniques, often resulting in higher wound morbidity. Advances in minimally invasive surgery make visualization and dissection of such complex cases feasible, with all the attendant benefits of a minimally invasive over an open approach.
