First Results of Pediatric Robotic Inguinal Hernia Repair with the Senhance® Surgical System: A Matched Cohort Study
In this pilot study, the use of the robotic system was safe and feasible. More experience, further improvement of the system for use in very small children, and investigation in a larger sample size with long-term follow-up is necessary to evaluate efficacy.
