About
Justin R. Henning is a surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing the safety and efficacy of robotic and minimally invasive approaches to complex abdominal wall and hiatal hernia repair. His major contributions center on demonstrating that robotic primary and revisional hiatal hernia repair is not only feasible but also associated with favorable perioperative outcomes, directly challenging recent conflicting reports of higher complication rates. In his 2023 study, Henning provides critical single-institution evidence supporting the robotic approach as a safe alternative to traditional laparoscopy. Additionally, his 2022 work on the management of emergent, incarcerated, and strangulated paraesophageal hernias addresses one of the field’s most dreaded complications—gastric volvulus with obstruction or strangulation. By highlighting the significant morbidity of open emergent repairs, Henning underscores the urgent need for improved surgical strategies. Though early in his career, his papers have already garnered citations that signal growing influence, and his research is shaping best practices for both elective and emergency hiatal hernia surgery, making him a rising voice in gastrointestinal and robotic surgery.
