AB  - The  indications  for  inguinal  hernia  repair  have  been  described  in  the  preceding  chapters.  Robot-assisted  repair  may  be  applied  to  indirect,  direct,  or  femoral  hernias.  Robotic  inguinal  herniorrhaphy  is  contraindicated  in  the  presence  of  intraperitoneal  infection  and  irreversible  coagulopathy  and  in  patients  who  are  poor  risks  for  general  anesthesia.  Relative  contraindications  include  large  sliding  hernias  that  contain  colon,  long-standing  irreducible  scrotal  hernias,  ascites,  incarceration,  and  bowel  ischemia.  A  thorough  knowledge  of  the  anatomy  of  the  inguinal  region  is  essential  when  it  is  approached  posteriorly  using  robotic  assistance.  The  view  of  this  area  as  seen  from  the  intraperitoneal  perspective  is  shown  in  Chapter  114.  In  addition,  the  surgeon  should  have  demonstrated  and  verified  expertise,  skill,  and  proficiency  with  the  use  of  robotic  devices  and  must  be  credentialed  to  use  these  devices  for  surgical  assistance.
