- Abstract
Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) has gained much interest by minimal invasive surgeons and gastroenterologists. Performing abdominal operations without any abdominal wall incisions may offer all the advantages of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and eliminate the complications associated with these wounds. The NOTES technique is rapidly being developed, but one of the major issues involved in the procedure that has to be addressed prior to implementation is in obtaining adequate spatial orientation.
