Will surgeons use the TriPort to develop a new generation of procedures that reduce surgical trauma and scars? will the reduction in trauma and scars result in an increase in the number of patients willing to provide transplant kidneys and other organs? Is there any substantial advantage of SPL or NOTES over conventional laparoscopy and […]

Is single port laparoscopy SPL positioned to be more successful than using the natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery NOTES approach? Is there any substantial advantage of SPL or NOTES over conventional laparoscopy and robotics? Are retention suture t-anchors to the lateral parietal peritoneum improving the SPL access for scarless single port transumbilical

Is Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) entering into a new phase? Is the marriage of laparoscopic and interventional endoscopic techniques resulting in MIS procedures that are less invasive, safer, and achieve better outcomes for patients? What are the advances in endolumenal techniques, including Natural Orifice Translumenal Endolumenal Surgery NOTES?

Has a new dimension been added to minimally invasive surgery that eliminates complications associated with traditional surgery such as postoperative abdominal wall pain, wound infections, hernias, adhesions, and impaired immune function? Are second generation devices currently being evaluated and have any of the prototypes been proven to be more feasible for clinical application?
