The wristed instrumentation and superb visualization of the robotic platform allowed the surgeon to proceed with minimally invasive approach to dissect and reduce the giant hernia sac in spite of its extensive adhesion to the vital structures and minimize the possibility of operative complications. The usage of this technology has broaden the application of the minimally invasive surgery in the challenging cases and offers less post-operative pain and faster recovery even to this subset of patients.
