| Core Tip |
This case demonstrates the safe and feasible use of emergency robotic-assisted surgery for strangulated hernia transabdominal preperitoneal repair in an elderly patient with an active influenza A (H3N2) infection. Key modifications in surgical approach, anaesthesia, and infection control (such as ultra low-pressure pneumoperitoneum, ultra-low particulate air filtration, and lung-protective ventilation) were implemented to reduce postoperative complications. The case provides valuable insights into managing high-risk surgical patients with active respiratory viral infections, offering a model for future emergency robotic-assisted surgeries during potential future viral pandemics. |
