Abstract
Abstract BACKGROUND AND METHOD: Robotic hernia surgery is progressing more and more, so that the robotic procedure is also used in the groin. We compared our patients who were operated on laparoscopically using the TEP technique with patients who were operated on robotically using the TAPP technique. RESULTS: The rTAPP can be safely performed without any problems and has many advantages, but the operating time is significantly longer than the laparoscopic TEPP. CONCLUSION: Inguinal hernia surgery can certainly be learned quickly and effectively as an introduction to robotics. It remains to be seen whether it will prevail in terms of surgical time and economics.
