Abstract
Port-site incisional hernia (PIH) is an uncommon complication that can arise subsequent to a laparoscopic procedure, potentially leading to severe adverse effects such as intestinal obstruction. We currently present two cases of incarcerated hernia that occurred at an 8-mm trocar site after robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS). While occurrences of an 8-mm port-site incisional hernia are infrequent, it is imperative to note that most PIH cases are due to inadequate fascial closure of the port site. Therefore, surgeons must pay attention to closing the fascia of an 8-mm trocar site following RALS.
