| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The standard treatment for abdominal hernia is surgical repair using artificial mesh. And the hernia membrane is disposed. We thought that by recycling the disposed hernia membrane (Recycled Mesh) may revolutionize the surgical treatment of the hernia. For the first step, we assess the fixiation of the Recycled Mesh by Glutaraldehyde solition. For the second step, we considered that minimally invasive surgery by da Vinci Surgical System (da Vinci) can be an effective treatment for the use of the Recycled Mesh. Since the use of the da Vinci needs particular training, we took the training course directed by J. W. Lee. who is a professional surgeon in da Vinci surgery. We have assessed the endoscopical heria repair surgery by the simulator.
