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
