Robot-Assisted Extraperitoneal Ventral Hernia Repair—Experience From the First 160 Consecutive Operations With Lateral eTEP and eTAR Techniques
The "lateral approach" of robotic eTEP provides a safe surgical method for treating ventral hernias using minimally invasive techniques and mesh augmentation in the retro-muscular space. Further studies are necessary to compare extraperitoneal with transperitoneal methods.
