Robotic Hernia Surgery

The possibilities and limitations of robot-assisted hernia surgery are presented in this book by an international team of authors in all their facets. The focus is on step-by-step descriptions of individual procedures for different indications and the detailed description of the anatomical conditions as they appear to the surgeon during the robot-assisted approach. Numerous drawings and surgical photographs, specially created for the book, illustrate the presentation and are complemented by a total of 16 videos of the surgical procedures, which can be accessed from the book using the publisher's MoreMedia app. Additional chapters address patient-related and scientific foundations and consider the procedures in their social and economic context.
