Robotic versus laparoscopic ventral hernia repair: multicenter, blinded randomized controlled trial

Abstract: ObjectiveTo determine whether robotic ventral hernia repair is associated with fewer days in the hospital 90 days after surgery compared with laparoscopic repair.DesignPragmatic, blinded randomized controlled trial.SettingMultidisciplinary hernia clinics in Houston, USA.Participants124 patients, deemed appropriate candidates for elective minimally invasive ventral hernia repair, consecutively presenting from April 2018 to February 2019.InterventionsRobotic ventral hernia repair (n=65) versus laparoscopic ventr… Show more

“…The remaining two RCTs compared robotic with laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair ( Table 2 ). One 20 was multi-institutional and included 123 patients, and the other 21 included 75 patients at a single institution.…”

“…Seven 12 , 24 , 25 , 32 , 34–36 of eight studies, including all three with propensity matching, demonstrated increased operating time with robotic compared with open surgery by 66–88 min, whereas there was no statistically significant difference in the remaining non-matched study 27 . For the robotic versus laparoscopic comparison, all nine studies 20 , 21 , 26 , 28 , 30 , 31 , 36 , 38 , 40 reporting duration of surgery, including two RCTs and two propensity-matched studies, reported a longer operating time with robotic VHR by a median of 54 min.…”

“…Incisional hernia comprised 71.4% (n= 10) of Group 1 while it comprised 74% (n= 20) of the patients in Group 2 (p= 0.71). The median follow-up period was 8.5 months (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14) in Group 1, and 14 months in the other group (p= 0.01) (p= 0.01). There were no significant effects of age, sex, ASA, BMI, hernia defect area, and smoking (Table 2) on the postoperating complication rates (Table 2).…”

“…Ventral hernia repair is recommended for the cases to be potentially symptomatic and complicated 1 . In recent years, laparoscopic and robotic surgeries are also an option, however, the open method continues to be a common method of treatment 2 . For an optimal result, a tension-free hernia repair and the placement of mesh that will cover the edges of the defect approximately 4 cm (onlay, inlay, or sublay) in hernia cases larger than 2 cm are adopted 3 .…”

“…Also, there are studies conducted on a retrospective review of patients who have undergone laparoscopic hernioplasty (by TAPP or Tep methods) on the example of the study of the main problems that lead to recurrence. These studies show that the recurrence rate after hernioplasty performed by experienced surgeons was extremely low, undesirable effects of surgery can be foreseen and corrected due to the experience of the surgeon, and a certain proportion of such cases, require replacement of the technique and equipment used during surgery [16]. As Trap R. (Surgeon, Doctor of Surgery and Gastroenterology, Grostrul Hospital, Denmark) notes in the scientific surgical publication Repair of Ventral Hernias should be operated with a tension-free technique.…”
