Robotic Trans-Abdominal Retromuscular Umbilical Prosthesis (r-TARUP)

Completed
Conditions
Ventral Hernia
Registration Number
NCT05423574
Lead Sponsor
Central Hospital, Nancy, France
Brief Summary

Combining the advantage of minimally invasive surgery with laparoscopy to reduce postoperative complications and the placement of a retromuscular prosthesis with closure of the defect in order to reduce the risk of adhesion and restore normal anatomy in the treatment of primary and incisional ventral hernias, is made possible through robotic assistance.

The challenge of this study concerns the evaluation of quality of life, postoperative pain and recurrence at 6 months in the management of primary and incisional ventral hernias by robot-assisted laparoscopic approach.

Detailed Description

The robotic-assisted laparoscopic approach for the treatment of primary and secondary ventral hernias is already used in the visceral department of Nancy in France. This technique seems to reduce post operative pain, to improve quality of live and to reduce recurrence. The goal of the study is to evaluate the benefices of this technique. The quality of life, postoperative pain and recurrence will be evaluated at one and six months postoperatively. The recurrence will be evaluated by clinical examination and a computed tomography scan performed at sixth month postoperatively.
