Robotic Hernia Repair
Robotic hernia repair is now available in Australia. It is a sophisticated robotic surgery platform designed to facilitate surgical procedures using a minimally invasive approach.
Robotic hernia repair surgery provides surgeons with enhanced capabilities, including high-definition 3D vision and a magnified view. The da Vinci Robot provides increased dexterity and visualisation that allows surgeons to safely perform an operation through small incisions as opposed to multiple incisions used in traditional operations.
The following video demonstrates how Mr Karametos repaired a Recurrent (Revisional) Inguinal Hernia utilising the robot-assisted laparoscopic approach.

What is Robotic Hernia Repair like for patients
Your surgeon sits at a console next to you and operates using tiny instruments through a few small incisions. A camera provides a high-definition, 3D magnified view inside your body. Every hand movement your surgeon makes is translated by the da Vinci robotic surgical system in real time to bend and rotate the instruments with precision.
