Despite the paucity of evidence on robotic ventral hernia repair (RVHR) in patients with obesity, the robotic platform is being used more frequently in hernia surgery. The impact of obesity on RVHR outcomes has not been thoroughly studied. Obesity is considered a major risk factor for the development of recurrent ventral hernias and postoperative complications; however, we hypothesize that patients undergoing robotic repairs will have similar complication profiles despite their body mass index (BMI). We performed a retrospective analysis of patients aged 18-90years who underwent RVHR between 2013 and 2023 using data from the Abdominal Core Health Quality Collaborative registry. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative characteristics were compared in non-obese and obese groups, determined using a univariate and logistic regression analysis to compare short-term outcomes. The registry identified 9742 patients; 3666 were non-obese; 6076 were classified as obese (BMI > 30kg/m2). There was an increased odds of surgical site occurrence in patients with obesity, mostly seroma formation; however, obesity was not a significant factor for a complication requiring a procedural intervention after RVHR. In contrast, the hernia-specific quality-of-life scores significantly improved following surgery for all patients, with those with obesity having more substantial improvement from baseline. Obesity does increase the risk of certain complications following RVHR in a BMI-dependent fashion; however, the odds of requiring a procedural intervention are not significantly increased by BMI. Patients with obesity have a significant improvement in their quality of life, and RVHR should be carefully considered in this population.
