Abstract

Inguinal surgery remains one of the most common procedures worldwide. The introduction of minimally invasive robotic surgery has progressed slowly but steadily over the past few years. Better ergonomics, three-dimensional (3D) vision, and instrument dexterity improve the operative experience. This study aims to evaluate the clinical and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of our early experience with robotic inguinal hernia repair.
