title: [Research progress of three-dimensional laparoscope system].
abstract: The lack of depth perception and spatial orientation in two-dimensional image of traditional laparoscopy require long-term training of the surgeons. Three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopy provides stereoscopic visions as compared to monocular views in a traditional laparoscopic system. In this review, the authors summarize the clinical application of 3D laparoscopy and its current research progress.
