Abstract
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Gastroenterology - Her nias is the subject of a report. According to news originating from Milan, Italy , by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Treatment of incisional hernia is a rapidly evolving field of surgery, with actual trends being oriented toward re tromuscular/ preperitoneal mesh placement. The diffusion of robotic surgery is co nstantly growing in different surgical specialties and is gaining widespread acc eptance for abdominal wall reconstruction." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of M ilan, "Recently, novel robotic platforms have entered into the market. In this s tudy, we present the first transabdominal retromuscular incisional hernia repair performed with the new Hugo RAS™system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA). The surgical team had previous robotic experience and completed an official 2-day se ssion running incisional hernia repair on human cadaver lab. Operating room sett ing and trocar layout were planned. The patient presented a 4 x 4 cm midline inc isional hernia and was scheduled for transabdominal retromuscular incisional her nia repair at our Institution. A description of the operative room setup, roboti c arm configuration and docking/tilt angles is provided. Docking time, operative time, and console time were 15, 95, and 75 min, respectively. All the surgical steps were completed without critical surgical errors or high-priority alarms. N either intraoperative complications nor conversion to open surgery was recorded. Postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on postopera tive day 2."
