Robotic Abdominal Wall Repair
A minimally invasive solution to restore core strength and correct abdominal wall separation, with or without an accompanying umbilical hernia. Performed through a few small incisions using the Da Vinci robotic surgical system, which offers 3D high-definition vision and wristed instruments for greater precision, the procedure repositions and reinforces the abdominal muscles from within — avoiding the long scar and lengthy recovery associated with traditional open surgery. Ideal for postpartum patients or anyone with a weakened abdominal wall causing bulging, back pain, or core instability. Includes surgical mesh reinforcement when needed for lasting results. Most patients go home the same day or after one night, resuming light activity within 1–2 weeks and full recovery by 6–8 weeks. A safe, discreet, and effective way to rebuild a stronger core.

How are we doing?
About the clinic
Robotic umbilical hernia repair is a modern surgical procedure available at Digestive Surgery and Gastroenterology Specialist Centro PAD in Madrid, Spain. This treatment uses the Da Vinci robotic system to fix abdominal wall defects with millimeter precision and 3D visualization. The clinic operates within the HLA Moncloa University Hospital, which holds ISO 45001 accreditation and was recognized as a World's Best Smart Hospital in 2023.
Robotic Surgery Methods
Surgeons at Centro PAD use the Da Vinci X, Xi, and 5 robotic systems for hernia repairs. This robotic approach allows for safer mesh placement compared to traditional open surgery. The surgeon places a reinforcement mesh to create a tension-free repair. This method reduces the chance of the hernia returning in the future. Small incisions lead to minimal scarring and significantly less pain after the operation.
The Surgical Team
The procedure is performed by highly qualified specialists in general and digestive surgery. Dr. Carlos García Vásquez is a PhD Cum Laude and the Associate Head of General Surgery at Infanta Elena University Hospital. He is officially certified in Da Vinci X robotic surgery. Dr. César Lévano Linares also holds a PhD Cum Laude and carries certification for the Da Vinci Xi system. Both doctors specialize in abdominal wall surgery and minimally invasive techniques.
Diagnostics and Recovery
Before the surgery, patients undergo a physical examination and an abdominal ultrasound or CT scan. These tests help the doctors confirm the size and location of the hernia. The recovery process is typically fast due to the minimally invasive nature of the robotic system.
- Hospital stay: Most patients go home the same day or after a few hours of observation.
- Mobility: Patients can usually start walking and moving within hours of the procedure.
- Activity: Normal daily activities can be resumed in just a few days.
- Restrictions: Patients must avoid heavy lifting for about 2 to 4 weeks.
Patient Care at Centro PAD
Centro PAD provides a complete care pathway from the initial diagnosis to the final follow-up appointment. The team focuses on digestive health and uses the latest robotic tools to improve surgical safety. Patients receive a personalized plan for a gradual return to their physical routine.
