The authors describe their first hybrid, combined robot-assisted surgical procedure. The procedure included robot-assisted aorto-bifemoral reconstruction and robot-assisted incisional hernioplasty in one step. The procedure has not been published in the literature yet, and it indicates that, with certain experience, concomittant management of a secondary disorder may be performed together with a minimally invasive procedure for a primary condition, with a very good outcome.
