Robotic partial cystectomy with excision of mesh after inguinal hernia repair: a case report.

Mesh erosion into the urinary bladder after hernia repair can occur up to two decades after the primary operation. Although it is rarely reported, it can be a possible cause for recurrent urinary tract infections and therefore a mentionable complication after inguinal hernia operation. Robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial cystectomy with complete excision of the mesh is an option for definitive treatment.
