Robotic Hernia Surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a robotic system to repair hernias.

A hernia is a condition in which an organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the muscle or tissue that surrounds it. Hernias can occur in various parts of the body, including the abdomen, groin, and diaphragm.

We perform Robotic hernia surgery using the most advanced da Vinci surgical system by Intuitive Surgicals, which is a computer-assisted system that allows the surgeon to operate with unmatched precision and control. The system consists of a console that the surgeon uses to control the robotic arms, which are equipped with surgical instruments.

During the procedure, small incisions are made on the abdomen through which the robotic "arms" and a camera are inserted. We use the surgeon console to control the robotic arms and perform the repair. The camera provides a high-definition 3D view of the surgical area, allowing us to see the area more clearly than with traditional open/laparoscopic surgery.

The benefits of robotic hernia surgery include less pain and scarring, faster recovery time, and a lower risk of complications such as infection and bleeding. Robotic surgery also allows the surgeon to perform more complex procedures with greater precision, reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissue and organs.

Robotic hernia surgery may not be suitable for everyone and the decision to undergo this procedure should be made in consultation with a qualified surgeon. Patients with certain medical conditions or previous surgeries may not be candidates for robotic surgery.

Dr Vishal Soni is an Expert Robotic Surgeon & one of the few Proctors in India with Intuitive Surgicals. He is a master in Hernia & Abdominal Wall Reconstruction Surgeries. He can be consulted at Zydus Hospitals for Opinion & Surgery.
