This atlas demonstrates how to perform each available extraperitoneal hernia repair via a set of high-quality annotated images showing step-by-step guidance on how to perform the surgery. Robotic extraperitoneal hernia procedures are considered great teaching procedures especially with a dual teaching console. The book bridges the gap between traditional hernia and laparoscopic hernia texts by combining both approaches to create a book with a unique visual approach. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative figures are integrated to highlight the importance of these step-by-step procedures, enhance skill and efficiency, and avoid surgical pitfalls. Detailed descriptive figures accompany step-by-step instructions and include specific anatomical annotations that describe the anatomy and layers of the abdominal wall during hernia procedures.Robotic Hernia Surgery provides a comprehensive, insightful and state-of-art review of this field, and serves as a valuable resource for surgeons, surgeons in training, and students with an interest in hernia and robotic hernia surgery.

Robotic surgery is the fastest growing area in surgery worldwide. This growth has touched every single specialty, but it is seen most prominently in general surgery. Since The SAGES Manual of Robotic Surgery was published in 2017, the increasing utilization of robotic surgery has led to advances in technique, technology and even indications for the use of robotic procedures. Innovation has been at the forefront with development of newer robotic platforms. This revised and updated second edition provides a comprehensive review of indications, best practices and advancements in technique over a wide variety of robotic procedures. The manual will be divided in sections. The first section includes chapters providing a general review of available robotic surgical systems, including future innovations and platforms. The second section focuses on specific procedures based on the various SAGES Masters Programs. The third section is comprised of chapters on miscellaneous but prominent and upcoming robotic areas, such as thoracic, breast, transplant and cardiac procedures. All sections are accompanied by plentiful color figures and photos, as well as high-quality surgical videos.Like its predecessor, this manual provides a detailed review of robotic surgery and is geared towards surgeons at all levels of training and experience. It also addresses the needs of surgeons across various sub-specialties. In addition to providing insight into individual procedures, the general review of the system will be beneficial to those who are brand new to the technology.

Minimally invasive surgery has impacted the outcomes of surgery more than any technology since the development of sterile technique. The hard science has demonstrated that decrease in wound complications and recovery time has created the biggest gap with open approaches to surgery. The total economic benefit may be unfathomable when looked at comprehensively. Integral to the rise of minimal access and therapeutic techniques in surgery has been the growth of technological improvements over time. Beginning with insufflators, videoscopy, and energy devices, that evolution has continued into the development of tele-surgical devices that feature full articulation of instruments, high-resolution 3-D optics, and computer assisted movement. This has come with controversy – as the dominant manufacturer of robotic assisted devices, Intuitive Surgical, and their generations of da Vinci surgical platforms, holds enough market share to spur cries of monopoly and financial excess.  However, with over 3000 world-wide systems in use, and over 6000 peer-reviewed research articles, the impact of robotic surgery cannot be ignored.  The current state of data suggests equivalency in most procedures with regard to traditional outcome measures, equal or somewhat elevated costs, with specific areas of superiority.The first section of this textbook, Surgical Robots, covers the history, economics, training, and medico-legal aspects of robotic surgery that will be of interest to students, residents, fellows, surgical staff, and administrators or public health specialists who seek to gain a comprehensive background on robotic surgery, or justification for purchasing a robotic system for their institution. Surgeons will also find this background valuable to their practice, to give context to their procedures so they can better counsel their patients, help with advocating for robotic platform purchases, and proactively prepare themselvesfor medico-legal issues. The chapter on legal issues will have specific instances of robotic surgery-related lawsuits and their outcomes, a first for robotic surgery texts.   The second section of this textbook, Robotic Procedures, will contain a comprehensive catalogue of procedures that have been performed robotically in general surgery, gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, cardiothoracic, and otolaryngology. Each author will cover the existing literature, preoperative planning, room and patient setup, steps of the procedure, and postoperative care. Standardized room maps and port placement will help the student, resident, fellow, surgeon or OR Staff to quickly reference these before cases. Each chapter will also cover the specific equipment needs and expected complexity of the procedures, allowing administrators to better gauge how to prepare for, or ration, use or their robotic resources.The final section, Future of Robotics, will give the entire scope of audience a look into what exciting advancements in the field are on the horizon. This textbook is a complete resource for robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, covering the history, current state, technical and clinical aspects, and future considerations that may be of interest to any who has a role, stake, or curiosity regarding robotic surgery.

Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der roboterassistierten Hernienchirurgie werden in diesem Buch von einem internationalen Autorenteam in allen Facetten dargestellt. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Schritt-für-Schritt-Beschreibungen der einzelnen Eingriffe bei unterschiedlichen Indikationen und die detaillierte Beschreibung der anatomischen Verhältnisse, wie sie sich beim roboterassistierten Vorgehen dem Operateur zeigen. Zahlreiche, eigens für das Buch erstellte Zeichnungen und Operationsfotografien veranschaulichen die Darstellung und werden durch insgesamt 15 Videos zu den Operationsverfahren ergänzt, die aus dem Buch mit der MoreMedia-App des Verlages aufgerufen werden können. Weitere Kapitel gehen auf die patientenbezogenen und wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen ein und betrachten die Verfahren im gesellschaftlichen und ökonomischen Kontext.
