U.S., Nov. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07925112) titled 'Robotic vs Open Retromuscular Abdominal Wall Hernia Repair' on Nov. 03.
Brief Summary: A hernia is a bulge through a hole in the muscles of the belly (abdomen) wall. A hernia at the front of the abdomen ('ventral' part) is called a ventral hernia. These happen in a weak area; either on its own or caused by an operation. These can cause pain, get in the way of things people want to do, be upsetting because of how they look, and sometimes can get stuck out (which can cause blockage of the bowels). These can make people's quality of life worse. Because of this, ventral hernias are often repaired in a planned way with an operation.
