Morgagni Hernia Repair – Dr. Mark Glover

Dr. Mark Glover presented a video presentation at the 2020 Americas Hernia Society annual meeting on an interesting case of a congenital Morgagni diaphragmatic hernia repair. The repair highlights the utility of the robotic platform in this situation. The surgery revealed a contralateral defect that was not seen on preoperative CT and could not be seen from the intraperiteonal view.  Standard laparoscopic intraperitoneal repair would not have detect the defect, which could lead to later recurrence or ongoing symptoms.  The video can be seen here on YouTube
