Minimally Invasive Surgery for Ventral Hernia Repair
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study follows patients who undergo laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgery to repair ventral hernias (bulges in the abdominal wall). Researchers track outcomes to understand how well these less-invasive approaches work compared to traditional open surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a ventral hernia (midline or lateral abdominal wall) that requires surgery
- Your surgeon has determined you are a good candidate for minimally invasive (laparoscopic or robotic) surgery
- You are able and willing to provide written informed consent
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have severe heart or lung conditions that would make minimally invasive surgery unsafe for you

This study compares minimally invasive (laparoscopic) techniques for repairing ventral hernias, which are bulges in the belly area. The goal is to see which method leads to better outcomes, such as less pain and faster recovery.
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.
This trial compares two ways to repair medium to large ventral hernias (bulges in the belly wall): open surgery (with a cut) versus robotic-assisted surgery (using small tools and a camera). The goal is to see if the robotic approach leads to better recovery.
This trial is comparing two minimally invasive surgery techniques for fixing ventral hernias (a bulge in your belly wall). One technique places the mesh inside the belly, the other places it outside the belly lining. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery.
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 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.
