Overview
Whether your hernia is small and straightforward or large and recurrent, Dr. Muffoletto will recommend the repair technique best suited to your anatomy and health, including robotic, open, and complex abdominal wall reconstruction options.
The robotic eTEP approach offers significant advantages for complex cases including the ability to repair the hernia using small port site incisions rather than one large incision. This decreases the risk of infection, wound complications, drain placement and hospitalization, and most patients only require one overnight hospital stay.
