Correct trocar placement should provide direct access to the target organs,  an optimal view of the operative field  and minimize mental and muscular fatigue.
tro-car  -  [Fr.,  troisis , three + carre,  side]   noun a sharp-pointed surgical instrument fitted with a cannula and used  especially to insert the cannula into  a body cavity cannula -   [L., dim of  canna, reed]   noun a tube that is inserted into a cavity  by means of a trocar filling it’s lumen
Avoid competing  for the same space: Working against the camera and ‘blind spots’ “ Dueling swords” phenomenon  (scissoring effect)
No obstacle between trocar entry and target To avoid iatrogenic injuries.

Trocar distance from the  target organ depends upon  the size of the patient. Individual trocars can be moved closer to the target along an axis line. Additional  trocars can be  added along the semicircular line.

Editor's Notes

  1. Need a better picture
  2. Despite these advantages, there are still many drawbacks to a conventional laparoscopy. The surgeon operates looking at a monitor that only shows a two dimensional image. The rigid instruments the surgeon works with are controlled from a distance; they have no wrists, which decreases precision, dexterity and control. As a result, the surgeon will also tire more quickly. Due to the small incision, the participation of the assistant is limited. This makes complex gynecologic operations very difficult, resulting in a higher likelihood that you will receive larger incision.
  3. The da Vinci System was designed to overcome the limitations of the traditional open and conventional laparoscopic (minimally invasive) approaches. da Vinci is a state-of-the-art surgical robotic system that provides the extended capabilities necessary to complete your procedure using only a few small incisions. With da Vinci Surgery, the surgeon is seated at a nearby console and always in full control of the robotic instruments. Since the assistant is next to the patient and has direct access to the surgical site, he or she can assist during complex steps of the procedure.
  4. Using master controls the System directly translates the surgeon’s hand movements into precise micro-movements of the instrument tips. Specialized instruments increase dexterity, and help the surgeon to perform a more precise surgery. The da Vinci System cannot be programmed to act on its own, and therefore requires the continuous, direct input of your surgeon.
  5. If you remember from before, conventional minimally invasive instruments are rigid and have no wrists. The EndoWrist instruments of the da Vinci System move like a human wrist. This allows the surgeon to control the instruments with the precision necessary to perform complex procedures like lymph node dissection using only a few tiny incisions.
