Even though, due to the high prevalence of inguinal hernia, TAPP technique is increasing in frequency and robotic Abdominal Wall Surgery (rAWS) is emerging as a valuable tool in this regard. Although inguinal TAPP procedure principles have been published and simulation is needed, the availability of validated models remains scarce.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A new low-cost model was developed to simulate inguinal rTAPP repair. For validity assessment, a new TAPP-specific fidelity questionnaire and assessment scale were developed to compare the performance of novices and experts in the simulated procedure. The models used were assessed at 60\u00a0min for execution and quality score.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Twenty-five residents and specialists from all over the country participated in this study. Execution, quality, and global performance was higher in the seniors group compared to juniors (8.91 vs 6.36, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.02; 8.09 vs 5.14, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001; and 17 vs. 11,5, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001, respectively). Overall fidelity was assessed as being very high [4.41 (3.5\u20135.0), <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.918] as well as face [4.31 (3.0\u20135.0), <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.867] and content validity [4.44 (3.2\u20135.0), <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.803]. Participants strongly agreed that the model is adequate to be used with the DaVinci\u00ae Robot [4.52 (3.5\u20135.0), <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.758].<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This study shows face, content, and construct validity of the model for inguinal TAPP simulation, including for robotic surgery.
