In the researchers' words
The purpose of this project is to investigate whether the use of the new robot-assisted technique in surgery for large and medium-sized ventral midline hernias has brought tangible benefits to patients in terms of Textbook outcome, length of stay, complications and recurrence, compared to open technique and conventional laparoscopic technique. In addition, the investigators will assess the health economic aspects of the different techniques.
