closed with a running self-xating, slowly absorbable 2-0 suture. This will com­pletely isolate de visceral sac form the retromuscular pocket created for the mesh. After closing the posterior layer, than the mesh is unrolled across the closed poste­rior sheath and afxed to the right lateral abdominal wall (Fig.21.7).
At this point the pneumoperitoneum is decreased, and the anterior fascial defect is closed using a self-xating, nonabsorbable number 1 suture in a running fashion, trying to include intermittent bites of the overlying hernia sac imbricating the hernia sac and thus obliterating the dead space (Fig.21.8).
21.2.5 Single Docking: Lateral Approach
Small hernias and even mid-sized defects can often be approached using a lateral single-dock approach. It’s very important that the preoperative evaluation of the patient showed that a large retrorectus space is available, so adequate overlap will be achieved after dissection. Patient is positioned as described in Sect. 21.2.2. Docking is achieved as describe in the previous section. The main difference

between this approach is the lateral aspect of the ipsilateral rectus sheath is incised to gain access to the retrorectus space. Dissection is continued from lateral to medial until the linea alba (or lateral edge of the hernia defect) is encountered. Then the posterior sheath is incised to enter into the preperitoneal space along the midline, including dissection around and reduction of the midline hernia sac. Once across the midline, the contralateral posterior sheath is incised in it’s medial aspect, and dissection completed to the semilunar line, creating a unique ap that is formed by both posterior rectus sheat connected by peritoneum (including hernia sac) at midline. The anterior fascial defect is closed rst. The retromuscular space that is available after closure, followed by placement of the proper sized mesh. After xa­tion of the mesh, the posterior sheath is closed to completely cover the mesh (Fig.21.9).

21.3.1 Pre-Operative Planning andConsiderations
All potential minimally invasive abdominal wall reconstruction candidates must undergo a comprehensive workup to ensure they are appropriately selected for sur­gery. There are absolute and relative contraindications to the eTEP approach for hernioplasty (Table21.1). An up-to-date computed tomography study of the abdo­men and pelvis is recommended for effective preoperative planning [5].

thrombosis prophylaxis are used [68]. A foley catheter is placed in order to decom­press the bladder. The operating table is exed with the legs extend downward at a minimum of 30° to afford the surgeon and assistant greater instrument range of motion (Fig.21.1). Failure to sufciently ex the operating table will result in arm’s hand collision with the patient’s body while dissecting and suturing the defects.
The enhanced-view totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) access approach was previ­ously described for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair by Daes in 2012 [9]. This approach introduced the notion that the extraperitoneal domain is a limitless space once the conuence of arcuate line and semilunar line are taken down, relying on proper anatomic identication and dissection in the naturally occurring retromuscu­lar spaces. Typically, dissection is initiated in one of the retrorectus spaces and then crosses over to the contralateral side, thus joining the two spaces into one large operative eld. Since Daes’ initial description, we have adopted this technique for ventral and incisional hernia repair [1012].
Docking is dependent on the system available (Si vs Xi), the location of the her­nia defect and decision where to crossover. Lateral docking with the Si is possible in patients with wide rectus sheet (>7to 8 cm) to a complete lateral approach. Oblique docking may be accomplished for cases where the crossover would be done laparoscopically, before the robotic docking.
21.3.3 Upper Midline Defect
Figure 21.10 demonstrates the port position for upper midline defects. The rst inci­sion is made 2cm bellow a horizontal line drawn through umbilicus just medial to the right linea semilunaris. The anterior rectus sheath is identied and incised sharply. Single site balloon dissector is used to develop the right retrorectus space in cephalad and caudal directions. It is critical to avoid over-ination which may rup­ture the linea semilunaris and consequently injure the rectus abdominis muscle. In addition, special care should be given to appreciating the inferior epigastric vessels that travel parallel and medial to linea semilunaris in the vicinity of the #1 port. The telescope dissection without the use of the balloon is an option and allows a cost reduction to the procedure. For robotics procedures, this may be a better option, once the balloon uses a 10/12mm trocars and the robotic system uses 8mm trocars. The use 5mm trocars to create the space may facilitate the change of those to 8mm ones to be used for the robotic procedure. Once the space of Retzius is developed, ports #2 and #3 are placed under direct vision in the lower abdomen. Thus, even

before any initiation of sharp dissection the retromuscular space surrounding the hernia defect is completely dissected bluntly with the balloon space-maker.
The timing of docking may vary. One may prefer create a bigger preperitonial space before docking to avoid difculties due the small working space for the robotic instruments. We prefer to perform the crossover below the level of the umbi­licus, developing preperitoneal and retromuscular spaces that have not been previ­ously violated. In the middle we try to preserve the preperitoneal contributions to the posterior layer which are made up of the falciform and umbilical ligaments. In such a fashion the division of posterior rectus sheath and preservation of falciform ligament and umbilical ligaments allows us to join the right and the left retrorectus spaces together with the midline preperitoneal space (Fig.21.11).
Following the dissection in these planes we then anticipate to encounter the neck of the hernia sac. In an incisional hernia, these layers surrounding the neck of the sack can be thoroughly fused together and difcult to differentiate. An attempt may be made in some cases to reduce the entirety of the sac by separating it from its distal attachments, however this is not often attempted. We frequently give consid­eration to sharply opening the peritoneal layer just proximal to the neck of the sac to reduce visceral contents under direct visualization and perform limited adhe­siolysis (Fig.21.12). Any defects in the posterior layer can be xed with 3-0 suture.

Once the hernia contents are reduced, retromuscular dissection commences with release of the medial aspect of the posterior rectus sheath and concludes just below the level of the xiphoid process.
Closure The edges of the PRS are sutured together in the midline with 2-0 absorb-
able or barbed suture starting near the xiphoid process running caudally. Starting at the dome of the bladder the surgeon and assistant switch positions and suture is run cranially, meeting in the middle where the two sutures are tied together. On the anterior layer closure, the pneumoperitoneum is dropped to 8–10mm Hg to decrease the tension placed on the anterior layer closure. The defect being closed is at the top of the monitor and is sutured “upside down” with back handed needle driving. A 0 barbed suture is used for this closure due to technical ease of use afforded in this situation. If a large subcutaneous sac is present, one or more bites of the sac are included in the suture line for plication in order to reduce the likelihood of develop­ing a postoperative seroma (Fig.21.13). With the previously performed posterior CS, the defect edges should come together in a tension-free fashion. The defect is closed with v-lock suture, completed with four or ve throws run in a backwards fashion (Fig.21.13). Once both anterior and posterior fascial layers are closed, the mesh is deployed in the retromuscular sublay position. The developed retromuscu­lar space is measured for appropriate mesh size selection. Our preference is medium weight macroporous polypropylene mesh which is deployed through our 12mm trocar (Fig.21.14). There is no need for antiadhesion barriers as there now exists an autologous barrier between the mesh and viscera; a signicant advantage of the sublay position. Mesh placement in the retromuscular space has allowed for the discontinuation of aggressive penetrating xation techniques with transfascial

sutures, transitioning rst to brin glue and, more recently, to complete cessation of mesh xation as our data illustrates penetrating xation is associated with higher incidence of chronic pain without the added benet of lowered rates of recurrence. Pneumoperitoneum is released under direct vision, assuring the mesh is lying at and wrinkle-free between the posterior and anterior layers (Fig.21.14).
Formerly, we once placed drains just supercial to the mesh in all hernia repair cases. We are now more selective with drain placement and do not utilize it for most patients. To date we have not observed an increase in wound morbidity as a result.
21.3.4 Lower Midline Defects
For a right-handed surgeon, we found that lower midline defects are easier to address by initiating the dissection in the upper portion of left retrorectus space. Figure21.15 demonstrates the typical port position that we chose to use for this approach. Balloon dissector is used at port position #1 to develop the left retrorectus space, followed by direct visualization for placement of port #2 into the developed space with an optional port #3. Blunt dissection in the left retrorectus space is per­formed in a caudal direction and the pubis is identied. As the upper midline has not previously been violated above the level of umbilicus, the medial aspect of the left posterior rectus sheath is incised and the preperitoneal space entered just supercial to falciform ligament (Fig.21.16). The right posterior rectus sheath is identied and
