Repair of umbilical hernias concomitant to other procedures is safe: a propensity score-matched database study
BackgroundRepair of an umbilical hernia is most often considered the less important condition when concomitant with other abdominal surgery. Despite...
-
Cost analysis of open versus robot-assisted ventral hernia repair – a retrospective cohort study
BackgroundRobot-assisted ventral hernia repair is associated with decreased length of stay and lower complication rates compared with open repair,...

Robot-assisted versus laparoscopic approach to concurrent bariatric surgery and hiatal hernia repair: propensity score matching analysis using the 2015–2018 MBSAQIP
BackgroundUp to 37% of class three obesity patients have a Hiatal Hernia (HH). Most of the existent HHs get repaired at the time of bariatric...
-
Readmissions after emergent incisional ventral hernia repair: a retrospective review of the nationwide readmissions database
Emergent ventral hernia repair (eVHR) is associated with significant morbidity, yet there is no consensus regarding optimal surgical approach. We...
