Zusammenfassung: | Background
In this study, we aimed to compare short‐ and long‐term outcomes between laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (L‐TEP) and robotic transabdominal preperitoneal (R‐TAPP) inguinal hernia repair.
Methods
Patients were classified into two groups: L‐TEP and R‐TAPP. The groups were case‐matched in a 1:1 ratio based on age, gender, and body mass index (BMI).
Results
Out of 86 patients, 43 patients were matched in each group based on the study criteria. Demographics were comparable between the groups. Operative time was significantly longer for the R‐TAPP compared to L‐TEP (129.1 ± 47.2 min vs 92.5 ± 28.3 min; P |
