Preoperative Computer-Assisted Laparoscopy Planning for the Minimally Invasive Surgical Repair of Hiatal Hernia

Surgical Repair of Giant Type IV Hiatal Hernia

In this case report, we described a 74-year-old female patient with major complaint of respiratory problemsdyspnea after meal. Chest X-ray of the patient revealed a  gianttype IV hiatal hernia. Preoperative evaluations of the patient included esophagoscopy, esophageal manometry, barium swallow, and CT-scan. Repair of the hernia was performed using a dual mesh on the diaphragm and partial anteri...

A Preoperative Planning Procedure for Robotically Assisted Minimally Invasive Interventions

A successful robotically assisted minimally invasive intervention necessitates preoperative planning which is done by the surgeon to prepare the intervention and to decide about the best access to the surgical site. In the context of robotically assisted minimally invasive surgery, this requires to optimally place ports and robots such that important conditions and requirements like sufficient ...

Minimally Invasive Spigelian Hernia Repair

INTRODUCTION Spigelian hernia is an uncommon ventral hernia characterized by a defect in the linea semilunaris. Repair of spigelian hernia has traditionally been accomplished via an open transverse incision and primary repair. The purpose of this article is to present 2 case reports of incarcerated spigelian hernia that were successfully repaired laparoscopically using Gortex mesh and to presen...
