Study of robotic hernia repair with Dexter system
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a robotic system for fixing groin hernias (inguinal hernias) using small incisions. It is for adults scheduled for hernia repair surgery who want to see how well the robot helps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are willing to follow study rules and sign a consent form.
- You do not have bleeding problems or be pregnant.
- You are not taking part in another clinical study at the same time.

This study tests a minimally invasive (small incision) surgery to repair a groin hernia. The goal is to see if the approach is effective and helps you recover quickly.
This study tests the use of a robotic device to fix two hernias at once—one in the groin and one near the belly button. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for people who need both hernias repaired.
This study tests whether a robot-assisted device called Versius can be used safely and effectively for inguinal hernia repair surgery. If you are already scheduled for minimally invasive hernia repair, you may be able to join.
This trial studies whether using a specific implant “mesh” (OviTex) during robotic hernia surgery helps patients heal well and report less pain and better quality of life over time. It may be an option if you have a ventral or inguinal hernia planned for elective robotic repair.
This trial tests a new robotic system called Anovo for repairing ventral hernias. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for this type of surgery.
This trial compares robotic surgery versus the standard open approach to repair a ventral hernia. It may help determine which method works best and is safer or easier for the right patients.
