Economizing on a 12mm port incision site: modification of robotic bowel stapling technique in Da Vinci X/Xi left colonic resections-the modifiedNorfolk and Norwich robotic stapling technique.

Abstract

The modified Norfolk and Norwich technique allows to replace a 12mm port incision site by an 8mm one, therefore reducing potential postoperative complications linked to 12mm incisions by robotically stapling through the routinely placed suprapubic Alexis port.
