Incarcerated Epiploic Appendix in a Spigelian Hernia Treated by Robotic-Assisted Surgery

INTRODUCTION: We report a case of a patient who presented with incarceration of the epiploic appendix in a spigelian hernia, subsequently treated by a robotic-assisted surgical approach. CASE DESCRIPTION: This is a case of a 52 year-old male patient who presented with nausea and two-week history of...

description INTRODUCTION: We report a case of a patient who presented with incarceration of the epiploic appendix in a spigelian hernia, subsequently treated by a robotic-assisted surgical approach. CASE DESCRIPTION: This is a case of a 52 year-old male patient who presented with nausea and two-week history of worsening left lower quadrant pain. On examination, the patient had an irreducible left lower quadrant mass. Computed tomography scan showed an epiploic appendagitis in a left Spigelian hernia. The patient underwent a robotic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair successfully and was discharged home the same day. CONCLUSION: The robotic platform was a safe and effective approach to treating the patient with no postoperative complications.
